    DirecTV to add 44 HD local markets (Updated with Launch Schedule)

    2 ABC's and South Bend can't even get the one. This really sucks! If E* puts all of the networks in South Bend up in HD in the near future, I'll switch in a heartbeat!

    Steps to Change Service from Dishnet to DTV

    2nd question, pretty seamless when I switched. They used the old Dishnet mast to mount the new dish, used the existing cable runs. When it was working, I just called Dishnet and cancelled. Took the tech less than one hour.

    Wii on LCD

    The combination of the component cable and moving the sensor bar to the top of the TV has helped a bunch! Still not as fast as the old CRT TV but MUCH better than it was. Thanks for the suggestions!!

    Wii on LCD

    Have it set for widescreen. The component cables seems like a good idea and I have looked for them at local stores but can not find any. Where can they be purchased? Thanks.

    How about that Wii Fit?

    We love it. I really don't put a lot of stock in what it says you weigh, lost 11 lbs overnight!!! (HA) It's hilarious to watch people in their 40's or 50's trying to keep the hula hoop going!
