Just looks like it's rearranged a bit. There is some more customization you can do now, sort of like the previous version. You can also change between 3 different color schemes.

I didn't get any mail, but it just tried it, and it is the new format. That said, I rarely use the page, so I don't know when it actually changed.

The mail check is still goofy. It says I have 8 new mails, but there are actually none as I don't read it on-line but use Thunderbird.

Yep! Comcast updates their net interface page, hoping that their customers (most of whom do not ever read this page!) will fail to realize that Comcast is very slow at updating their internet up/down speeds, and is actively denying Netflix streaming when there is "congestion". Not that Comcast is re-investing their profits on our backs in eliminating "congestion".

Comcast is what it is, and nothing it can do with a new web interface will counter Comcast's poisonous corporate culture.

I didn't get a good look at it, I kept dozing off after a few seconds.

I like it. It doesn't yell at me for using Google Chrome.

On the old one in the top left it said "Get Comcast's Internet Explorer 8". Uhh, I'm sure Microsoft would like to know Comcast is taking all the credit for IE8.

Try the mobile comcast.net designed for iPhone

The mobile comcast.net designed for the iPhone also works in a regular web browser on a laptop or desktop. It is much faster and easier to navigate for basic stuff. Try it, you'll like it. I came across it while setting up bookmarks for my Palm Pre smartphone.

»m.comcast.net/iphone/index.jsp#_mainMenu
- works well in Firefox, but not in IE8

OR if you want a mobile link generically formatted for mobile, try this. But I like the iPhone format better:
»m.comcast.net/index.jsp?classic
- works better in IE8

P.S.>> I also set up my own web page full of web links designed for use on a mobile platform:
»tkjunkmail.googlepages.com/mobilelinks

Wouldn't that entail a 'yahoo.com' URL? Such as, 'comcast.my.yahoo.com/'?

I saw that, went to the new page, and was so impressed I closed it so as not to wear it out

URL frame

I know its not a Yahoo thing, was just being sarcastic and so on.

Not sure I really like this new one though.. especially the header.. its just so generic and plain. Yet another cookie-cutter site.

One advantage of the new Homepage is that you can customize it. You can set it up as lean or as loaded as you'd like.

I keep writing to them about the mail count but it does no good. I just checked again and it says I have 29 e-mails with 0 unread. Well, I would really like them to show me exactly where they are.

I pointed that out during the SmartZone beta, but there's been no progress in that. SmartZone is really Zimbra, so maybe it's the Zimbra team to blame?

So, how do we contact Zimbra? Someone needs to fix it.
