More HD channels to launch in July?

I was in the Virgin store today and picked up their July edition of the Buyer's Guide. I noticed on page 10 "More channels than you can shake your remote at" that the following HD channels are listed:

CNBC HD
ITV4 + 1 HD
MTV Hits HD

Also as someone pointed out earlier this week, Virgin are also suggesting here that they offer some interesting HD channels:

http://shop.virginmedia.com/digital-tv.html

The Spectacular HD section includes Nat Geo Wild HD and SKY2 HD.

Does anyone know if any of these channels are coming soon or are Virgin being either careless or simply lying to us about the channels they provide?

I have stated about a few of these here?

Broadcast: ESPN signs first darts rights.

ESPN has won the rights to the BDO Winmau World Masters darts tournament, which was previously aired by the BBC, as it looks to push beyond its core sports of footabll (Football) and rugby.

Perhaps if the Mods hadn't been so rigid and ridiculous in the modding of this thread there wouldn't have had to have been a very similar second thread created and perchance there would be no confusion as to what should be posted where... just a thought!

Members may now use this thread for discussion - I do not see the point in two threads. It's just too confusing.

Sounds like a good idea!
If it goes out of control, why not make a sticky for the both threads.
Although it's a higher presence on the list of threads, it would help people see the two?

Of course it is up to you folks how these boards are organised, but personally it would be good to continue with a separate thread for all VM news, articles, press releases etc only. And all discussion on these and rumours can go into the other thread. I really don't see what is confusing about that.

It has been nice to see the mods have been "tighter" of late and not let things get out of control as they have been for so long. Almost reminds me of Frank's original forum. Why ruin things now?

3 stickied threads like this would be nice:

Change log - no discussion
VM News, Announcements & Articles - no discussion
Coming Soon - all discussion about above and rumours

Good to see that ESPN are trying to increase their sport portfolio for the UK, but they have left SKY unopposed to sports right recently, best example Football league. Sorry at the moment there is nothing of value to watch on their main channel until the football season starts up again:(

You might not but it would seem others are because the two threads are being used for the same thing and team members are having to constantly move posts from each of the threads. It makes no sense having posts in two different locations on the same subject - let's keep things nice and simple, one thread, one place, one discussion.

Can we have a sticky post for Media Boys post one update though, so we can use this as a point of reference to then discuss!
