With no message or announcement, DISCOVERY KIDS HD has been added to the FiOS systems. (I'm in VHO7 and I know VHO8 has it also). The channel will be renamed HUB sometime in October. For now, it is on Channel 789. Not a channel I'll ever watch, but just thought I'd post it here for anyone interested.
Yeah, it has been on here in VHO1 for a few days. Agreed, I won't watch it, but when the grandkids are here maybe.....
I also found today on my Menu an announcement dated 9/27/2010 that the South Asian (Hindi) package now includes Star India Plus at no extra charge (I don't think it is in HD). Channel 1751. I am not a subscriber to that package but maybe somebody here is.

Discovery Kids doesn't seem to be added in AA County MD (just like MASN2 HD!) - but I would have the new Indian channel if I subscribed to that package. Which I don't.
You should scroll ahead and see the programming they're going to offer when it becomes the Hub. It looks pretty decent. Lots of classic sitcoms and whatnot.
Also noticed channel 571 - ESPN Goal Line. Says "Coming Soon - ESPN Goal Line provides live coverage of various NCAA football games on Saturdays from 12pm - 11pm. Goal Line keeps fans up-to-date in real time, switching from game to game with live look-ins, highlights and a chance to see every important play."
Sounds like NFL Red Zone for college football.
I love these new channels that only have content a few hours a day a few times a week. I vote we put up a 1960s test pattern when they have no content.
