Time Warner Cable passes ESPNU HD / ABC Family HD to Albany

Clearly TWC has the ability to add ESPNU HD to its markets, and while some of us aren't exactly confident that we'll be as lucky as Albany, at least subscribers in New York's capital can now keep up with the latest in sports in glorious high-definition. According to a local in Pittsfield, MA (which is in the Albany system), he can now check out the aforementioned sports network along with ABC Family HD. Here's hoping this is a trend -- anyone else out there seeing these two? [Disclosure: Engadget is part of the Time Warner family]

anyone know when Dish Network plans on adding ESPNU-HD? Is it a contract or bandwidth issue?

The city of Raleigh weeps because we have no glorious ESPNU HD to watch the plethora of college teams in the area.
