Will it be this month?

Comet subscribers are eagerly expecting the launch of Comet Digital which was initially rumored for this month. Comet Management has not made any official announcement regarding the launch dates as yet however we are lead to believe that they may be carrying out testing which is probably resulting in some channels being taken off air from Comet Cable.

There may be chances that the launch may be postponed to October but in any case the launch will not be a commercial one initially, since they will first concentrate on converting their existing subscribers to digital.

We hope that Comet management will make an official announcement regarding their digital plans and would officially release the names of the channels that will be on the new platform.
