Is that right? Was syfy hd available when Virgin dealt with Universal, but not Universal hd?

Or did they do a deal which included some, but not all, of a channel owner's hd variants?
According to WiKI Universal Channel HD, launched on Sky channel 220 (as the Hallmark Channel HD) on 28 June 2010. I doubt that the VM deal with Universal is that old ,so maybe it was an exclusive with Sky for sometime.
