    Is there any word on Magnet bringing out a HD service?

    I'd like HD but unfortunately Magnet seem to have an exclusivity deal in our apartment complex so we can't get another provider. However Magnet seem to be very far behind when it comes to the TV side of things and I don't see anything about them offering HD.

    Just wondering if anyone knows if they're planning on rolling it out at some point in the not too distant future.

    We currently have 1 HD channel so there is a prospect of more to come.

    I have BBC 1 HD appearing on my channel list but when I go to that channel, all I get is audio with a black screen. I have a HD TV so is there some other equipment I need?

    It works with the Motorola+ box and a HDMI cable.

    You can PM me and I can give you your options.

    Your Fibre to Home broadband sounds impressive but your TV offering sounds like a joke one HD channel.

    No I have heard good things about Magnet I am in a UPC area.
    I like the picture quality on the HD channels.

    UPC only has 10 HD channels no Movies I think Magnet and UPC have a bit of catching up to do on getting some HD content.
