Phoenix needs to lose its map...a major section of freeway is missing from our maps because ADOT built it in the last five years. And the one section of that ENTIRE freeway (practically) never has data.

Data is sufficient for every other highway, though, but it's a gaping hole.

Today I saw a TWC ad scrolling on my IntelliStar. :blink: That's the first non-local ad crawl I've seen on it.

What for?  Mine has rolled recently a super short, super generic "Watch TWC in HD" scroll (and we don't even get TWC|HD!).

Also, one for getting your flu shot.  If you didn't get one yet (and you wanted one), you fail.

Nothing new. I remember seeing on before Epic Conditions premiered. Also, for TWC-HD, and now, just today, for the Storm Stories comeback.

I know it isn't new, but it's the first I've seen it on my Intelistar. There must be fewer local crawls in the system than there usually is, resulting in the TWC ads to show.

Maybe TWC programmed it on all STARs.

When did they update the L Bar during special programming? It's pretty neat.

We're getting that TWC HD crawl. That exact same one has popped up on Weatherscan, so I'm thinking that the IS web crawl system inserts it automatically or if TWC is putting out an override.

Does anyone know what the difference is (in meaning) of these two icons?

They're both AM clouds, PM sun, but the one on the left was used more on the maps on TWC for Partly Cloudy, iirc.
