Sue 'em I say. I didn't get any notice at all. They told me notices went out with "paper" bills. I pay my bills online. No notice was ever given me when I logged on.

Freakin' DirecTV! They turned off the HD channels I was getting because there's no SD simulcast! For all those who've been paying $9.99 for HD since forever with this outfit, we need to start a class action lawsuit against DirecTV and their HD broadcasts. Right now, I have the HD plus DVR...

I watched "Code 46" last night on MGMHD. I told my family that if they wanted to see a pretty good movie they never knew existed, they should always keep an eye on this channel. The HD is pretty good. No commercial interruptions. Broadcast is in original aspect ratio, so 16:9 will probably...

I've got new HD today! Very nice...I love the Food Network and NGC! WTG D^!!! I can't believe I'm happy with D^. So much pain for so many years!

Alright! Another great Wednesday morning with more HD releases! We're well on our way to having every channel in HD. I'll be able to tell my great-grandchildren..."Yeah, I remember a day when everything was SD, even real life!"

Today and on forward is why satelliteguys.us becomes so much more important in my life. Unfortunately, D* doesn't do a very good job communicating with its customers. It will be in this forum that we find out all the onezie and twozie channel launches all the way to the end of the year. I'm...

I just went to D*.com and added Starz to my programming! This is very very very nice! My HR-20 is going to have to get an eSATA HD soon!

I've never been so happy to have a predicition fall through! WTG D*^! Now...onto October and a whole bunch more channels! Yessir!

I loved the spoof poem! Well done, it made me smile.... Until seconds passed and I realized that this is indeed HDTV Eve and that unless they release today, they're gonna push back until Saturday. I've never been right on a prediction before...so THEY'VE GOT TO RELEASE TOMORROW...RIGHT...

So, is the launch going to be on Wednesday or not? (I am happy with the testing, but IMO, that should have been done earlier.) There's a strange quiet. Can you smell the fear? :yikes

Hey...I was a baby back then...so I thought Florida was playing.... Hayes did hit that guy in the mouth, though. I remember seeing it live. I know I'm not wrong about that! So...Jimbo. Who's ranked higher? Florida or OU? http://sports.espn.go.com/ncf/rankingsindex GO GATORS!

Wrong, Jimbo. If you read my previous post, I'm trying to guarantee ya'll a release next week of HD. BTW: I hate the Buckeyes...ever since that jerk coach of theirs hit my Florida Gator in the mouth for making an interception during the 1978 Gator Bowl. GO GATORS!

How's this for a ball-buster scenario? D* wanted to release on the 19th. A problem with the billing computer fouled things up, as well as some sporadic, intermittent technical problems with the sat itself. The billing problem was the easy fix, and the programmers have already applied the...

Ya'll want a guarantee that these few measley channels will be up "next week?" I say that they're going to miss. That there's no way, no how they'll have them up even by mid-October. There...now you have your guarantee, because whatever I predict will happen, the total opposite comes off.

Damn...I wanted to see OJ fry in HD today, too. Oh well...there's always the trial.
