Jim,
One important thing about U-verse in my area. Not sure if the same everywhere.
If you plan on having more than two TVs, you will not have HD on all three.
The lines are set up to only allow 2 HD viewing at the same time. If you try to turn on a third HD set on the HD channels, it will ask you to bump out one of the other two that is on.

I have HD in my bedroom, family room and patio. Fortunately, only two of us at home and only 2 TV's on at the same time so no biggie. If the kids were still home, would be an issue.

Overall, there are some quirks with the system that I am not thrilled with but do in fact like it much, much better than cable. For starters, in my area, Comcast was always experiencing outages. With U-verse, not one yet. Now that the billing issues have been resolved, I can move on and stay with them as won't go back to cable. Rather stay than experiment with Direct TV or Dish, which are the only two left.
