Some of you may remember that I made a petition to get TechTV back in Australia.
I emailed the petition in early January, & have not heard from them at all.
Now on to the good news. The How To channel on Foxtel has bought Call For Help with Leo Laporte. It will be airing on March 7 at 10.30pm and continues weeknights at 10.30pm. Here is the link: http://www.howtochannel.com.au/story...toryid=1845527
There is also a rumour that the How To channel bought The Screen Savers, which is to air in April, but I have not been able to substantiate that yet.
Here's hoping that they also buy X Play & air it in May. Then we won't need the TechTV channel at all.
I have no idea wether the petition had any influence in this news.
Now I want to ask you to do a small thing if you have the time. Send an email to How To and thank them for what they have done. Also ask them to consider any other programs from TechTV that you liked. Can I suggest The Screen Savers (as it is only a rumour) & X Play. I couldn't get their feedback applet to work properly for me, but you might have better luck. Here's the link: http://involve.dload.com.au/Web/Clie...nelSignUp.aspx
