    ESPN Interactive Zone

    New app... It appears as though there is now a replacement for the defunct Sporting News Interactive..., and it comes from none other than ESPN. It's located at iTV (100) > Sports (4) > ESPN Interactive (1). It's okay, IMO, but it could have more detailed stories, box scores, and a more...

    Any possible date yet for local on the 8's?

    Eh, no... Look what Stew said: An EXACT duplicate of what already available, just faster to load, that's all. And it had a slideshow, chances are they'd be testing this ON THE 8's... but since they aren't, perhaps they are saving something different for that slot...:)

    From: "First Look: The New Weather Channel Interactive" Here's the whole thing, while we're at it: Link to the offical thread concerning it (over 60 pages!): http://www.satelliteguys.us/dish-network-forum/78179-first-look-new-weather-channel-interactive-60.html#post938527 ----------- That's...

    Weather Channel now has direct local weather link!
