Re: Yet another HD complaint thread
Why do they need to give it to the entire country at the same time? If Pittsburgh and other markets are all digital already why not deploy as headends are capable? |

Speculation...nobody really knows. Anyone that posts time frames are really just taking a guess....take it with a grain of salt. The only post I have seen that has "some merit" was from a Verizon employee that said some time in mid June for the markets that are all digital at this time.....But, I'm not holding my breath. |

IIRC the original press release from Verizon (claiming added channels by "Spring 2008") said it would be added on a per market basis - indicating a staged roll out by VHO.

Where are they going to squeeze them? Is there going to be renumbering? |
