Cox adding a dozen HD channels in Northwest Arkansas

Don't say Cox Communications never did anything for you, alright Arkansas? Based on a letter from the company received by one particular fellow in the area, the aforementioned carrier is gearing up to launch a full dozen new high-def channels in Northwestern Arkansas. Specifically, the regions of Fayetteville, Springdale, Rogers and Bentonville will be covered, but we suspect the newcomers could bleed out to other areas as well. So, what all will you be getting? Try Versus / Golf HD, Food HD, Travel Channel HD, Cinemax HD, Animal Planet HD, Science HD, CNN HD, TBS HD, TLC HD, Discovery HD, HGTV HD and NFL Network HD. No specific date was given, but all twelve should go live sometime this month.

[Thanks, Dwight]

I like being referenced in posts. (Now how about answering my e-mail?)

I've been told Cox is adding HD to our area time and time again for the past year, so while this is certainly more news than usual, I won't be shocked if it takes longer than a month.

I'll believe it when I see it.
