FX HD by 2/29?

[maxmoto]

I was looking at the engadget article about the 922. The picture of the guide had FX HD and the date on the reciever was 2/29. I know that other pictures of the guide were not right at all, but it is very interesting.

Here is the pic:

2009 is not a leap year.

Check you calender. Only 28 days in Feb this year.

If we have to wait until 2/29 then that will be 2012.

It's merely for show... like those "simulated picture" disclaimers on TV ads...

BTW
5502 is USA HD
5503 is Sci-Fi HD
5504 is TLC HD

That is where the Alaska (and I think Hawaii) HD channels live.
But on the other hand, back on 2/29/08 they might have been anticipating adding FX HD and Encore Action HD by the time the pictures were ready for prime time...

furthermore:
Why is 7th Heaven and Full House on Encore Action HD and Les Mis on Cartoon?

We'll see it as soon as 'Les Miserables" shows up on Cartoon Network (which, it appears, we will be losing in HD on 2/29)

Anybody got some spare straws? I feel a need to grasp

I kinda wish there was a cartoon version when I was a kid, so I wouldn't have had to read that stupid huge book...

The 5000 channel range is for Alaska and Hawaii. The rest of us will have to wait for the famous word SOON.

There are cartoon versions.

Anime Bargain Bin Reviews- Les Miserables AKA Jean Valjean Monogatari..


There is also something called Les Miseranimals which I belive stars Daffy Duck as Jean Valjean and Elmer Fudd as Javert.

Sweet! Now if you have a link for a time machine, I would be greatly in your debt...

I never said this was a fact. I even stated that they were not right before (the pictures). I would be nice though if we would have FX HD in feburary!

Encore Action HD doesn't even exist yet.

Boy, that is a beautiful EPG, but I don't get all the wasted space on top.

Given there is already a weather icon there, perhaps Dish is allowing for personalized widgets. Stock quotes, news blurbs, more weather?

I believe they meant FXHD starting February 2029.

If we have to wait until 2/29 then that will be 2012.
