Anyone use Novus in Vancouver??? - Canadian TV, Computing and Home Theatre Forums

Novus Cable and Internet is available in our area now in Vancouver, and they have just added digital support with very similar offerings to SHAW. Does anyone know if they offer more channels, specifically more HD channels than SHAW?

Apparently they support all the same equipment, and dont give you any trouble if you want to activate outside boxes...

When I talked to them, they indicated 7 HD channels but would not tell me which ones. The line up of channels is very similar to Shaw's with the same amount of analog and digital channels if you use the Motorola box. Presently I don't see any advantage to switch from Shaw to Novus.
