I sent insight in Louisville, KY an email asking when they will have the local on the 8's Louisville forecast in hd. They sent a response a few days later and said by the end of June.
That would make the second KY IS2, right?

None of the hotels in Williamsburg uses Digital, so you're not going to find TWC HD, sorry.

Martin has Cox, Alex. Boston, on the other hand, is dominated by Comcast.

I've been tuning into Channel 847 TWC lHDl the past 3 days and some Xfinity Commercials have been appearing alot lately, i don't know if it has something to do with the Intellistar 2 coming to the Boston Area but i will post any new updates if i see any changes.

Figures - the IS2 would come to Boston after I leave.  I waited over a year for it to come when I was there!!

No HD feed in Daytona Beach, so I guess I'll never see it for myself.  :cry3:

Interestingly, Bright House has more HD channels than Comcast has in Massachusetts!  But TWC HD is conspicuously absent for some reason.  No Weatherscan, either.  All I can think of is that Bright House has its own weather channel, but it's basically similar to a satellite local forecast on TWC with voiceover narration.  That, and Bright House has its own 24/7 local news station with rather detailed weather reports every 10 minutes.

do they play smooth jazz like TWC/WFMZ 69 Accuweather or boring production music?

The commercials have nothing to do with an IntelliStar 2 installation.

Update on Xfinity

Quote
Xfinity has been slow to get HD stars.  They are still in a testing phase.  A few more should be turned on in Atlanta soon.  No idea about when a larger deployment for them will happen.

weird how i only live 18 miles southeast of Providence and my area doesn't even have it :(

I meant to post this earlier, but over a month ago, we finally got HD service, and thus, TWC HD. I was a little surprised to find, when I turned to TWC HD, that we had the IS2! :D Not sure how long we've had it, though, seeing as I just got HD service.

I'm impressed by the IS2 so far. B) I'll try to get a video of mine up as soon as I am able to.
