Looks like Massachusetts isn't getting the IS2 anytime soon, Xfinity hasn't ordered any units for the New England Area yet.

This is kinda off-topic, but don't you hate it when greedy companies like Comcast lie to you? For example, when I cancelled my services with them last month, they were gonna mail me a $88 refund but they never did! Those lying greedy bastards...  :hammer:

^^^ Pardon my language. I'm just real angry at Comcast for not sending my refund in the first place  :angry:

Call them and inquire about the issue? They may have forgotten. Dont want to go OT but when I got Dish back in 2002, I still had my cable line inserted in and I still received cable channels for about a month after

I talked with TWC and they told me it's in Xfinity's hands now, and said there is nothing more they can do on their end after the necessary configurations were sent to Xfinity.

Anyone know if Verizon FiOS has any plans to purchase the IS2 for their VHOs?

I don't know if this one is known about yet, but Poughkeepsie, NY has an IS2 (skip to the LDL cueing in at 1:18 or just look at the video screenshot it shows up there)
I don't know if the IS2 itself shows up in this video because I haven't watched the whole video.

Update From Xfinity

Quote
I can tell you that it’s not going to happen “anytime soon,” but it’s something that we’ll consider for our next round of HD additions.  Sorry there isn’t any more specific information available.  Rest assured that your feedback has been passed along to our programming team.

So basically i will hopefully get a new update in September on the IS2 status.

Has anyone else seen this text forecast "and possibly a tornado with some storms". I just saw this on my IS2 today. I wonder if it happens to anyone else.  :dunno:

I've seen that numerous of times on the IntelliStar when there's severe weather. I think they use that when your area is under a moderate/high risk for tornadoes. That's usually when I saw it. :yes:
