I'm very excited.... just set up my S3 and so far it is awesome!
I have a 52" Panasonic LCD projection TV coming tomorrow, and Time Warner Austin is coming tomorrow to install the cablecards.
I'm HOPING the TV is delivered in the morning before the TW guy or gal comes in the afternoon.
Right now I have hooked it up to my old Samsung 32" HD (4:3) CRT, which has moved to the bedroom. I set it up for OTA and analog cable. Now for my question:
Just in case the cable guy gets here before Circiut City delivery, would it be ok to do the cablecard install with the S3 upstairs in the bedroom and then move it downstairs (to a different cable jack) later? Is there any chance that the cablecards (hoping they work on the first install trip, I know its a gamble; I've been keeping up with the TW Cablecard Thread) will somehow be tied to the particular cable jack?
I have a strong guess that the answer is no; but if there's a chance that moving the S3 downstairs will hork it all up, I guess I should move the S3 downstairs now and just hook it up to the non-HD TV before anyone shows up, but that would mean no HD until the new TV arrives, and that would be a shame :) .
Of course if it all goes according to plan, I'll be watching my S3 tivo on the new TV before I even get a call from the cable guy.
Opinions anyone?
