No ESPN NewsHD this morning?

[thowe21]

Sorry, tried to post this under the other thread but got an error message trying to access the second page. Anyway, according to Scott we were suppose to get ESPN NewsHD this morning along with Direct but when I tuned in today nada. Yesterday ESPN News said at the end of their broadcast only Direct would be getting it today. What gives Scott?

Actually, it wasnt according to scott.. it was according to Espn's reports.... I would think the lawsuit that Dish has with Disney would be what gives

Wow, wish I didn't get a new subscription to dish in Jan.

I would wait until the Uplink Report to come out before wondering where it is.

I don't remember anyone telling us that we were going to get anything today other than maybe HD locals in some areas..

And most updates for Dish happen around the noon Mountain timeframe

 

[Scott Greczkowski]

We will find out in the next hour / hour and a half.

Keep your fingers crossed!

Espnnews Hd

ESPN News Bottom Line says ESPNNEWS HD Now availabel on DirectTV and select cable systems. NOT A GOOD SIGN!!!!

Still no Fox Sports (Comcast SportsNet) Bay Area!

ESPNNEWS HD is coming soon to Dish Network.

Looking like 2009 will be Dish's next National HD Channel. Figure they already have there 100 Channels HD...now they don't have to try so hard.

Reports up. Doesnt look good

I was watching ESPNews. At the bottom says ESPNEWSHD Now available on DirecTV. Call your cable or satellite provider for ESPNewsHD. No new national HD this week.

ESPNNEWS HD is coming soon to Dish Network.

You're either sarcastic ("soon") or you get off by making people who read this forum believe you actually know something. In either case, posts like this are absolutely worthless unless you have concrete information. If you do, spit it out.

DirecTV launches 3 more... we sit on a bunch of rumors... getting very old. If Direct would step up on their equipment... I would be gone.

 

[jansan]

There is nothing new since the Charlie Chat 03/10/2008. They hope to have Disney-HD, ToonDisney-HD, and ESPNnewsHD in the near future. No dates and no promises.

They did issue press release that their plans remain on track after the launch failure. I am waiting for the financial report from DISH for more information.

D* equipment is very good. May take a while to get use to it but it does have some very nice features E* DVR do not have.

+1:up

 

[butzchan]

Why would E* not launch this channel today? Capacity? There has to be a logical reason.

Can someone who use both Dish and Direct TV tell us if both are the same or is one better. If Direct TV DVR is good I guess DISH will see a hugh turn rarte 2008 is the year of HD
