Ya, I'd like to know this "info you can't share."

i never understood this concept of people having the nerve to say "oh I have something to say, but I can't tell"

Trevor, next time, please obtain approval to say what you want if it's a legal or copyright issue before telling everyone else.  When you state that you have something really interesting to share but admit that you haven't obtained approval yet, it comes across as teasing.  I can tell you didn't mean it on purpose, but it almost always gets interpreted that way.

This is the image that was posted here a while back (IIRC). Looks nothing like the image that KevOwensby posted...

What is the font everyone uses, such as for the "NOW" text? It can't be Interstate - if so I got screwed.

No, the "NOW" font is a weight of Helvetica.
I've gone off on a journey to be a moderator at another forum, but this place will forever remain home for me~

Hanzel is the font used for the numbers on the metro maps. ;)

So NOW is a weighted version of Helvetica
and Hanzel is numbers for maps?

Does the weighted version of Helvetica go with the rest of the text, such as in forecasts and such?

I just tuned into TWC HD today for like the first time in a month and I'm happy to announce that Cincinnati/Covington/NKY has the IS 2 now :)

Edit: We still have the XL too just in case if anyone's wondering.

Thanks Robert for updating, I did manage to contact a higher-up at comcast new england and he told me he will let me know what's causing the long delay with the IS2's in-house testing at Comcast/Xfinity's labs TWC's early timeline is between Q1-Q2 2012
