-- Cinemax 5 Star HD (Ch. 381)
-- Cinemax HD West (Ch. 380)
-- Comcast Sports Network Bay Area HD (Ch. 419)*
-- Comcast Sports Network New England HD (Ch. 435)*
-- World Fishing Network HD (Ch. 396)
These are the only channels I am missing right now.

If I sort the guide by HD channels only I have 177 channels.
Of these, 92 are unique channels.
If you take out the HDPPV, NHLHD, NBAHD, and duplicate channels you have.... 44 HD channels (this does not include the local HD channel offerings)

These 44 channels probably represent 90% of my TV viewing, with the other 10% taken up by my local OTA HD channels.

Just an FYI for those comparing apples to apples.

Yeah...looks like Dish got a few channel numbers wrong in their press release. The Comcast Sports Network channels weren't added until today, and I believe they're regional channels (someone correct me if I'm wrong) which means you won't get them since you're in TX.
