I found the same thing last night. You beat me to it.

I can't say that I blame you. If I were in the same situation I would also. Only in O&O markets. Unfortunately, that leaves a pretty large percentage of us out.

I have a Monster HTS-1000. When I try to run through the cable and sat my 921 doesn't get a signal. I've tried it a couple of times. Searching for the Panamax now :o

Motives/Priorities? I wonder if they have been and/or will be intentionally avoiding adding more HD channels in order to keep the number of HD subscribers low so there will be less pain when the MPEG4 transition occurs. :confused: The 'We don't have transponder space currently' doesn't...

I'm waiting to get more input as to the lineup to include in the poll. Once the poll is created, it is pretty well stuck. I'm trying to minimize the 'why didn't you include' and 'why did you include' comments. If you all agree that the list on the initial post is good enough, I'll go...

So are you saying that encore, ESPN2, and TheMovieChannel should not be on the poll?

Does everybody agree that Network HD feeds are the number 1 priority? If so, lets make that a given. The poll -when created- will then try to identify the next most desired HD channels. Channels that could be made available to anybody without legal restrictions.

hpman, Can you go through your list and indicate which are available now, projected launch dates for those that are in the works, and those that are speculative? Thanks...

I think the carriage O&O networks in HD is a great issue, but perhaps one for a different thread and/or lobbying and/or fact-finding activity. I'm not trying to minimize it. Starz-HD is on the list. Let's try to focus on getting this list in the first thread as comprehensive and accurate...

Did I hear/read somewhere that there is or is going to be a Bravo-HD?

Hmmm... This may be more complicated that I first thought. Using the theory that Charlie was sitting there with an open transponder and giving us the choice, I figure we'd have to narrow down to channels that are either broadcasting now or will be within the next couple of months. I don't...

NightRyder, Although I agree with you 1000% and I can only get NBC and a little CBS OTA, with the legal restrictions and the noose that the broadcasters have, I was hoping not to include the networks since with the exception of O&O markets, it can't be done even if Charlie wanted to. That...

As discussed in various places in this forum, clearly, we want more HDTV. Some folks want more sports, some folks want more movies, some folks want stuff that doesn't even exist yet. I the spirit of this forum, I'd like to create a poll that might provide information to E* regarding at...

jsanders, don't forget to add to the list: "We'll be the leader in HD" That was the promise that made me sign up with E* in the first place. The others have strung me along into staying.

Compelling Content We've seen lots of folks expound on their favorite HD Channel that E* should add. I'm wondering if there might be any value to creating a Poll that listed all available HD channels and allowed the members to vote for two or three. Perhaps either some consensus would...
