Yep, we have the xfinity commercials running here too. The Seattle metro area system is very well built out and as I've said before, all of expanded basic is digital, so this helps out our HD count of a tick above 100 and our 50 mbps soon to be 100 internet. I really do like it and it's nice to see Comcast finally caring about the customer a bit and building out services without waiting for competition like some others like Time Warner Cable.

The Xfinity branding will hit Comcast Three Rivers Region this week.

Augusta, Georgia
I know it's a little late to continue this argument... but really? I'm not one of the 11 markets but Augusta GA is?
I'm sure there's a reason, and it's probably because Augusta's system is built very well. And it gives them a chance to test the service in a smaller market.
Now, Aaron, you understand that our area never gets selected for squat lol. And to be honest, I don't need more Comcast services here as they just suck up your money, and find the littlest ways to charge you more for your garbage :bleh: Anyone heard of the insane Comcast tech near Detroit? He got fired for sleeping in their house for 2 hours, stayed on their property after they told him to leave, and cut the cable hookup connection and poisoned their dog. Comcasts reaction? Nothing. He was just fired and apparently Comcast didn't ofer crap to them after that. That's a prime example of Comcast at work.

But I will say, I'd have them over ATT :biggrin:

I think the rebranding might be coming to Atlanta soon, I saw an ad on TV about this, but I only caught the tail end so I don't know what it was saying.

EDIT: Looks like I was right, I just saw it again on FX and they said "Coming Soon."

Then you should be getting a statement in the CC bill saying which channels would be affected by the rebranding and a HD channel list of what's to come for the Atlanta Area.

I didn't get any changes regarding channels and we've had xfinity since February. To be honest, Xfinity is just the same old Comcast with a different name that they think would get people to switch back to them.

I notice today that the Comcast logo on my cable guide has been replaced with an Xfinity logo. Anyone else?

This happened to me about a month ago.
