Any new news/updates about the IS2 and the BETA process?
It hasn't even been a month!

But a month is ever so long, Martin. I want the IS 2 now!!  :bleh: That's the problem with our society: we always want things now. Well, I guess this principle applies better to cars and other stuff, but I guess I don't mind the wait. It's definitely worth it to me.

Good chance. I mean I don't expect the STAR team to rush the product thats not ready out the door.

It has been reported the Istar 2 is down in Nashville and Murfreesboro to my thinking "accommodate for the missing narration fixes."

So I randomly checked out TWC Media Kit and watched the "Local on the 8s HD" video, and it jogged my memory that there were supposed to be airport delay reports and a pollen forecast on the IS2. Now, I know this video was created a couple of years ago, but are there any plans to do like what they said? :unsure:

Those were added in December 2008 ;)

just remember though that anything graphic-wise shown on twcmediakit isnt final and is designed as a draft and animated in AE

So when will the airport delays product be added?  :dunno:
They've already got it on the NYC one, but when will it be added to the Nashville HD STAR's?

We have no idea. :wacko: That's why I asked. ;)
