TWC prepping 3D channels

I don't know if anyone else has posted this, but, by accident, I happened upon TWC's two 3D channels. Channels 1800 and 1801 are called 3DTV1 and 3DTV2 respectively. Currently they display a black screen with the text, "3D TV event channel. Check back for future 3D programming and events." They're actually not hard to find, as they're right next to channel 1 on the guide, but I rarely watch the analog channels so I don't know how long the two channels have been visible.
I wonder if this is the reason for the recent problems they've had. It always seems like they have problems whenever they try to add new channels.
Anyway, I guess it's good news for anyone who has a 3D capable TV or is thinking of getting one.

How about they get non-3D channels working correctly before moving onto something like this?  Or how about giving us channels that we want?

Amen!

Or a better way to search for shows (i.e Keyword Searching.)  TWC needs to focus on improving and bringing the current services we have and making them better with things like better search parameters, faster response times for the boxes/menus, improve on the basic essentials.  That should be a first priority. Most customers want a reliable guide, box, and easy access to searching for information.

After TWC has achieved proficiency on making the guide as good as its competition, (it currently is far below)  Than TWC can move onto other things like 3D channels, Look-Back, Start Over.  Get a decent guide and the boxes working well first with something representing 2010 program searching technology.
