Traditionally you would be right. But, it was up-linked and set at 135 this past Wed. Just waiting for BBC-A to flip the switch.
Rumor Alert!

I did not have all the facts right, but...

This is the extent of it...

I think I found out a while back that Turbo is an actual channel, but in the UK or South America (or both?) I don't know why it's on the US website, maybe they are trying to gauge interest.
If they took that stuff off HD Theatre, there wouldn't be much left on it...it's pretty much become the car channel. Maybe they are going to change the name...that's their usual gameplan. After all, ID has had 5 different names in 10 or 12 years. HD Theatre doesn't really serve much of a purpose anymore.
Now that you mention it, HD Theater used to be one of my most watched channels, and now I only watch about 15-20 minutes of Sunrise Earth some mornings while I'm getting ready for work.
How many times do we have to say that there is NO WAY in hell the MLB channel will come to Dish Network? That channel is tied to MLB EI and Dish will not carry it.
Smithsonian? LMAO! Forget about it.
Please...no mention of MLB channel. Everyone knows that its NEVER coming to Dish, and the very mention of the name will cause a convergence of fanboys on this thread sparing to effort in telling everyone how much E* sucks...
just...don't...
I wouldn't say NEVER for MLB Network, but its going to be a few years before they are eligible again.
Was watching How Its Made and it went to commercial, saw an add for Realz Channel on Channel 299 and then after that an add for BBC America HD. Both of these were locally inserted by Dish Network, then the BBCA ad ended it jumped back to a commercial on Science channel which was just ending.
I think this is a good sign.

Scott is this going to be a CONUS launch only?

Yep. Saw the same on USA hd about BBCA hd. This too was a put in ad by Dish.
Yeah, it would suck if they wait til Wednesday.
I would have watched Torchwood: Children of Earth already, but I was waiting for it to be shown in HD.
Smart money says Investigation Discovery will be on the platinum tier.
I bet Absolute and Turbo Bronze subscribers will get QVC HD!
Pfft! I can call TWC cable here. They match or exceed E* on certain things like HD channel count and On Demand. But, E*'s DVR is far superior. (D* is quite far behind in channel count.) If I just wanted HD channels w/o regard for picture quality I would actually call U-verse. I have a choice of four providers, but I still stick with Dish (no FIOS available to me). IFC, Fuse and TCM HD's would be nice. I can't get excited for Headline News in HD. It would remind me of the old Voom News too much.
