AT&T's U-verse gets TWC HD
« on: October 17, 2008, 03:11:55 AM »
From what I'm reading on Engadget HD, The Weather Channel HD has come to AT&T U-verse (on channel 1225) today.

http://www.engadgethd.com/2008/10/17/8-new-hd-channels-added-to-atandts-u-verse/

When will we see a further rollout of TWC HD on Comcast? I surely would love to have it...

If U-verse refuses to add a STAR on regular TWC, I doubt they'll add Weatherscan anytime soon.

Hmmm... :thinking:

Channel 1225 still doesn't exist on my U-Verse line-up. I wonder when this will take effect. :dunno:

There should be a like button on this forum, just like Facebook.

What's U-verse like (in terms of service, quality, pros/cons etc). Are there plans of this coming to Philadelphia?

They should add older stars like the Junior or 4000, much cheaper. :)

It's AT&T. They can surely afford an Istar. Plus, IIRC, TWC is no longer distributing lesser STARs to cable cos any more.

Being the only PC-based system, the IntelliStar is definitely cheaper than the 4000, and possibly cheaper than the Junior too.

Was money the reason, why U-verse couldn't get a STAR? And I am assuming their installing IStars for every headend?
