Wait... Jim said clearly (at the beginning of the chat) something like "you (Charlie) have already talked about HD launching this week"... and went on to talk some more about more HD channels in the future. That's when they showed the slides with the potential future HD additions. I rewinded several times to make sure I was hearing it right. Jim did say it. I did not catch Charlie saying anything though.
I have been reading all these postings and bets in the past, without commenting. Today, I think I'm jumping in the pool with (wishful thinking) USA and Sci-Fi at least. It is early and I have not had enough coffee, I can always blame it on still being sleepy and day-dreaming...

I doubt it... BUT part me me wonders if we'll get a small bone thrown after the charlie chat to tie us over until eastern arc is up and running. If I had to guess there's a chance something might happen today, if it does not we'll have to wait until May.
Is that to mean HD is launching this week or it was talked about launching this week?
They all cringe whenever Charlie is talking because his reality doesn't always coincide with Dish's.
There is a retailer chat scheduled for Noon Today...
Also remember Wednesday uplinks do not happen until around 1:30PM ET so anything is possible.
My gut feeling was correct about them announcing new HD on the Charlie Chat...
But my gut is also telling me to expect SOME new HD over the next few weeks.
However it would not surprise me if we saw nothing today as well.

I have said it in the pub members area, but will say it here. I expect most of the new HD on or around May 7th.
However I do expect a few channels that are not dependent on 61.5 to be available before then, possibly in the next few weeks.
I am not expecting anything today. CSTV will be renamed CBSCS, FSNY will be renamed MSG+ and other then that I dont see anything else interesting.

The "launch" quote ("we have a launch this week") was referring to the AMC-14 launch, not any new channels.
They should have a plan "b" in place if something happens to this sat. launch. If all goes well with this launch Friday then probably look for some new stuff the next few weeks. Probably would not be too smart to launch any hd before the success of the sat. launch.
