ATT U-verse

[Scottastic]

I work for AT&T so keep that in mind with this post...

I think it's amazing! You don't share bandwidth like you do with Comcast, no throttling on the internet, tv quality is really good (compression rates are much better, especially with HD) and having one DVR for all your rooms is pretty impressive. Make sure in your area they are supporting the new Sysco boxes, as the Motorola ones have had a few problems. Also, not all markets let you set recordings from all rooms, so see if yours does.

If internet is your thing, they just released a 24mbps option. It's crazy expensive, but remember that it is dedicated. 24mbps = 3mBps. It's insane. To put it in perspective: 1 mp3 = 1 second. One HD movie = 5 minutes.

Don't, whatever you do, get Uverse Voice. Don't get me wrong: it's a fine product, but you can get the stability of a regular phone line with unlimited calling for the same $30 if you have TV and Internet. Plus, porting your number to VoIP is a pain. Ask for the "All Distance Package", you won't regret it.

Somehow when I saw the title of this I knew you were going to chime in Scott.

I will say that I realy like Uverse, it is pretty good but with like anything just don't get your hopes up about anything special. If you start thinking it is going to be so much better than what you have now you will just be disapointed. I think it is a pretty good product but as with any cable company it is way overpriced, now they are all overpriced so it doesn't realy matter that much.
I did recently turn down the speed of the internet and honestly haven't seen much of an issue with it and it saved me about 25 buchs to do it.
The best thing is the multiple DVR's, if you are like me and have a GF or wife at home who just has to record a bunch of garbage you would rather stab yourself than watch, getting the extra dvr for the bedroom is a must. Trust me when I say that it is worth $10 bucks a month to avoid watching another reality/make over/style/bridal/how to castrate your man show.

Well I pulled the trigger. No contracts...no download limits. I talked to online chat and they gave me an extra $100 on top of the $250 money back already offered. F U Time Warner!

AT&T/Bellsouth can't get DSL out to my area but they are offereing this.... only reason i hate living in rural area.

Poe on here got the AT&T U-Verse and really likes it from what I understand. I've used his Internet a bit, and its pretty wicked.
