We are working to get approval from their lab now.  It has taken MUCH longer that anyone would have dreamed.

Looks like there is indeed some progress...

One can only hope.  I wonder what kinds of technical issues there were, but at least some progress is being made... that's the important thing, I suppose.

These Time Warner IS2 installs are encouraging.  Hope it will makes it way up here in Albany, NY soon!

Nice to see the IS2 rolling out in more areas now. Too bad the bulk of these areas, serviced by Comcast, won't be getting them anytime soon :(

Charter Communications in the Metro Dalton GA area has now launched the Intellistar 2 HD on our system. It was just launched yesterday May 13 on channel 797.

Our standard definition channel is still using the WeatherStar XL.

So far, there have been some bugs in ours, with some features showing No Data. Otherwise very nice and much better than our XL.

Thanks,

LOL, you have an XL and an IS2? Seems like an odd combo there.

When I first got into TWC, I always got the XL and IS confused. I would just find the thing that people talked about the most, and used that. I once thought the LDL was the XL. :P


Are you sure that you don't have the IntelliSTAR? It looks like this (ctsy. KenoshaTWCFan):

I'm not kidding.

I recorded the few screenshots below just a few minutes ago. They are from our WeatherStar XL.

Everytime I go to another town, I am always jealous of the Intellistar, because it has so much more than our XL ever could. 

I'm just happy that we have the Intellistar 2 at this point. It's the closest thing we've had to modern technology in our area.

Thanks,
Steven

Wow, thanks for the screenshots! The XL is my favorite STAR! I love it's icons! You are very lucky to have an XL....it's also very rare to see the XL in a big city such as Chattanooga.
