When will satellite customers get this update?
Most likely, it will take a few days though since satellite LDL is completely different than the cable LDL, according to Tyler.

But does anyone know if the Satellite LDL comes from DirecTV or TWC?

P.S.- This morning, the DirecTV LDL is still gray at the top.

The LDL you see on DirecTV or Dish comes from the IntelliStar unit that is installed at satellite "headend."

<_< If DirecTV had an IntelliSTAR, I'd be getting a local forecast, unless you mean the thing that generates the Pollen Data, Station ID,UV Index, etc.

They have an IntelliSTAR. It just doesn't produce local forecasts, that's all.

Ok, Gary, can you predict when those July 2008 LDL updates for the LDL on DirecTV could come just like you predicted the time the next version of the WeatherSTAR 4000 Emulator comes out on Taiganet?

Unfortunately I don't know anymore about that than anyone else here, meaning that I don't have any idea at all. I have no connections at TWC, so my sources for information are the same as every other person here.
