Will you be showing examples of the fine sound drop outs that I've been getting on almost every channel for 10 days now???

They will also be demonstrating how few HD channels you get for paying an extra $8 a month.

Gregg, If you took a poll I think we are ALL ready to switch!!!

I'm glad to see the TWC will invest money into a new state of the art store, but when it comes to investing money into what their customers have been asking for, NOTHING!!!

HD + TWC = Unhappy Customers

Just my 2 cents Glug2

As mentioned in another thread, I can't even get TWC in HD for another month due to converter shortages.:mad:

I'll be befriending OTA till then.

Samsung, Time Warner Cable and Advance/Newhouse Join Together to Launch OCAP on Interactive HDTV Sets and HD Set-top Boxes
Time Warner Cable Launches High-Definition Interactive Digital Cable Services on World's First Interactive Digital Cable Ready (iDCR) OCAP-Based TV and Set-top Box from Samsung

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Samsung, Time Warner Cable and Advance/Newhouse Communications announced that interactive digital cable services are now live on the Samsung HL-S5686C Open Cable Application Platform (OCAPTM) compliant DLP HDTV and SMT-H3050 High Definition Set-top Boxes (HDSTB) in Time Warner Cable's New York City systems, and will soon be expanding to other Time Warner Cable cities, including Milwaukee, WI, and cities covered by Advance/Newhouse's Bright House Networks cable systems.

The announcement was made today concurrent with the opening night of Time Warner Cable's Home to the Future exhibit. Home to the Future (//www.hometothefuture.com) is a four-story, interactive installation built inside the Time Warner Center at New York City's Columbus Circle that opens to the public January 17 and lasts for three weeks.

Time Warner Cable's new interactive cable service includes its OCAP Digital Navigator and its in-house developed Interactive Program Guide. In 2007, Time Warner Cable and Advance/Newhouse Communications will continue to rollout OCAP on Samsung OpenCable products in other divisions of Time Warner Cable and Bright House Networks.

"Samsung is excited to see the commercial launch of OCAP on our HDTVs and High Definition STBs," said DJ Oh, President and CEO of Samsung Electronics America, Inc. "Time Warner Cable and Advance/Newhouse Communications through its Bright House Networks cable systems have been instrumental in leading the North American cable industry to accelerate the deployment of OpenCable technology."

"This underlines our commitment to fully deploy OCAP on all of our systems and confirms our growing relationship with Samsung, a leader in consumer electronics," said Glenn Britt, President and CEO of Time Warner Cable. "OCAP will foster the national launch of interactive applications and these Samsung products will enable consumers to enjoy the full range of interactive services with or without a set-top box."

"We are pleased by the progress made through our partnership with Samsung and Time Warner Cable towards making OCAP a deployable reality," said Robert Miron, Chairman and CEO of Advance/Newhouse Communications. "This exemplifies our core commitment to continuously providing more choice and value to our Bright House Network customers."

SOMETHING NEW ACTUALLY COMING TO MILWAUKEE??

[gparris]

gb4fan92 & tbuiler:

So this explains why TWC in Milwaukee has not got any HD channel additions for so long as other TWC locations have?

Other locations like those in Texas have got 4 additional HD channels in the past months, while we got nothing except a price increase, I like to know what system they have vs. what we could get...honestly!

Then, I wonder WHEN we will actually get  this "something" to happen around here?:rolleyes:

[markd]

I was told by a rep at the new Southridge store last weekend that we were getting new HD channels for February 1.  I was there with my mother, picking up a new 8300HD and my mother asked if they had an HD channel lineup printout.  The woman said they were all out presently but that they were out of date anyway since they will be adding "a bunch" of new HD channels next month.

Hrmm :confused:

markd:
With a line of baloney like that, you'd think she worked for D*...:rofl:

[markd]
