They said the rollout would take place from 1/15 through 4/30, so they aren't just flipping a switch for everyone.  The mailer I got last week that told me about this said I needed to get a digital box by February 28th, and that date was put there with a sticker, so I'm guessing that is the date that my area will be converted.  Did anyone else get that mailer?  What dates did you have?]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Chris]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 23rd 2008 6:01PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on RCN goes all digital in Chicago, shoots for 100 HD channels]]></title><link>http://hd.engadget.com/2008/01/22/rcn-goes-all-digital-in-chicago-shoots-for-100-hd-channels/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://hd.engadget.com/2008/01/22/rcn-goes-all-digital-in-chicago-shoots-for-100-hd-channels/</guid><description><![CDATA[I got the mailer and my stamped date was Feb 12, so we'll see on Tuesday if all these new promised HD channels kick in.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[John]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 9th 2008 12:00PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on RCN goes all digital in Chicago, shoots for 100 HD channels]]></title><link>http://hd.engadget.com/2008/01/22/rcn-goes-all-digital-in-chicago-shoots-for-100-hd-channels/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://hd.engadget.com/2008/01/22/rcn-goes-all-digital-in-chicago-shoots-for-100-hd-channels/</guid><description><![CDATA[There are tradeoffs. They're cramming so many bits down the pipe that pixelization is rampant. I've had techs out many times, and only three weeks ago a tech replaced every wire and connector in my apartment; when that didn't solve anything, he followed the wire through its entry point to the hub down the street, which a team managed to replace that afternoon. It's better. But it still isn't very good. Their retransmission of the Patriots game on CBS this Sunday was so grainy it looked like I was watching it through a window screen. (I live near where Uptown, Andersonville, and Edgewater meet, if it makes a difference.)]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Bob S.]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 23rd 2008 10:44PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on RCN goes all digital in Chicago, shoots for 100 HD channels]]></title><link>http://hd.engadget.com/2008/01/22/rcn-goes-all-digital-in-chicago-shoots-for-100-hd-channels/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://hd.engadget.com/2008/01/22/rcn-goes-all-digital-in-chicago-shoots-for-100-hd-channels/</guid><description><![CDATA[Amen brother. Same here just a bit further North of you. I am just getting so tired of calling them with issues such as this. The fun one is when the audio and video blink every 60 seconds, I swear you can time it with a stop watch ! The resolution ? Re-boot my box each time. Seems to me the service should work as it is touted and not rely on me to get down on my hands and knees and constantly re-boot their equipment (which I pay them dearly for). ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Roger W.]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 7th 2008 8:47PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on RCN goes all digital in Chicago, shoots for 100 HD channels]]></title><link>http://hd.engadget.com/2008/01/22/rcn-goes-all-digital-in-chicago-shoots-for-100-hd-channels/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://hd.engadget.com/2008/01/22/rcn-goes-all-digital-in-chicago-shoots-for-100-hd-channels/</guid><description><![CDATA[Here is a link to the new channel lineup on the RCN website.<br><br><a href="http://www.rcn.com/pdf/chicago_lineups_2008-01-14.pdf" rel="nofollow">http://www.rcn.com/pdf/chicago_lineups_2008-01-14.pdf</a><br>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Jeff Hodges]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 22nd 2008 11:20AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on RCN goes all digital in Chicago, shoots for 100 HD channels]]></title><link>http://hd.engadget.com/2008/01/22/rcn-goes-all-digital-in-chicago-shoots-for-100-hd-channels/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://hd.engadget.com/2008/01/22/rcn-goes-all-digital-in-chicago-shoots-for-100-hd-channels/</guid><description><![CDATA[Color me excited!  Of course when I called RCN they had no idea what I was talking about when I referred to the new packages, so maybe they won't "flip the switch" until later this week.  I haven't seen the channel changes yet (I have cablecards in a Tivo) but I hope it comes soon so that I can reprogram my season passes to the new channels, which will be a royal pain unless Tivo will automatically do it which will help a lot.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Wilson]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 22nd 2008 3:23PM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
