Arsik, I work for Comcast in Seattle and am sorry there's a speed issue. if you can send me details at walter_neary at cable.comcast.com we get get someone working on that. Thanks for your patience.
Hi Anon, I work at Comcast, and I know the timing is confusing and am sorry about that. What you read about in the Seattle P-I won't be happening for a period of time, and certainly not before Feb. 17. We'll be communicating directly with customers at least a couple months in advance before they need the equipment for the channels you were talking about. We're moving those particular analog channels to digital to make more room for popular things like HD and higher Internet speeds and who-knows-what the telecom future will bring. Customers will get a lot of notice as it's obviously in Comcast's best interest to get the equipment to people so they continue to enjoy both the existing channels and the new services.
