Default Spike in HD?

Does anyone know when Spike is going HD? They keep advertising, but still no HD channel?

All I can find is "Early next year (2008).." so I guess old news isn't good news.

Never. Theyve been saying "Sometime within the next 12 calender months" for 3 years now.

I've heard that the TUF7 finale will be in HD. Maybe right before that? Or another empty promise?

Doesn't matter for me, my cable provider JUST got HD ppv at UFC 84. So it will probably be another year after it comes out before I can get Spike HD.

I only have an old ass sanyo I hate coming home to it after watching the fights in HD at my friends place with a 40+ samsung though, so I can imagine how much it sucks.

My TUF is in HD on SpikeHD. It's channel 241 on DirecTV.

Kill Bill Vol 2 in on, but last UFN wasn't in HD

I've got Spike HD via DirecTV, and it's pretty good. As was said, TUF 7 is in HD, and I'd assume future Fight Nights would be in HD as well.

No Spike HD for me either...I have FIOS (Verizon) but there are rumors of WEC HD being rolled out this summer.
