Comcast adding nine HD channels in New Jersey

While we're pretty sure New Jersey residents (along with many other cable subscribers nationwide) were envious of Virginians earlier this month, it looks as if Comcast is taking its additions up north. Reportedly, the cable company is scheduled to add SportsNet New York HD, USA HD, Sci-Fi HD, Food Network HD, A&E HD, HD Theater, The History Channel HD, HGTV HG and Animal Planet HD to the lineup on March 27th. Granted, not all parts of NJ will be affected, but we are hearing that systems in the Jersey Shore communities from Sandy Hook down to Long Beach Island should find 'em late next month.
