Showcase HD and National Geographic HD have Launched
Well today is December 20th, and that means that Showcase HD and National Geographic HD have launched in Canada. If you subscribe to Rogers Digital Cable, Shaw Digital Cable, or Star Choice Satellite, you can recieve both of these new HD channels.
Notice someone missing? Bell ExpressVu does not yet have National Geographic HD, or Showcase HD. Currently, both channels are expected to launch on Express Vu sometime around Feburary 28th 2007. This comes as a surprise that Express Vu has not launched these two channels, given that they are sure to be quite popular, and even more surprising because Express Vu is the High Definition leader in Canada.
I’m not sure what Bell is thinking, but they must have their reasons. Even after the addition of these two new channels to the competitors line ups, Express Vu is still in the lead with the most HD channels in Canada.
One more thing, Kenny vs. Spenny is going to be shown in HD.
There is a new firmware version out now for the ExpressVu 9200/9220 HD PVR. Version 146. There is no word yet on what bugs or features have been added, I havn’t noticed anything different in the PVR menus, or with how it performs. Time will tell of course.
