My uVerse was installed on time and had no issues afterward. The DVR is great! I can record 4 shows at once and watch them from any TV in the house. I can even pause it and pick it up in the next room. By the way, the $95 price includes 3 mb DSL and a landline phone with all the calling features, voice mail, and unlimited calling anywhere in the USA.
The calling features are amazing. My favorite is "call locator," which is a beefed up version of call forwarding. If someone calls my home, it rings on my cellphone as well. You can program up to five numbers. I can also go online and control my call features, listen to voice mails, and look up incoming and outgoing calls in real time.
The iPhone app completely sucks. It does not work, plain and simple. If you try to program your DVR, it will spit out an error message saying "program already aired" even for future programs. About all it will let me do is let me erase programs already on my DVR. It also does not allow access to billing data or call features.
I was also disappointed that, in 2009, the AT&T provided wireless router/gateway does not include a print server!!
I don't know how good their tech support is because I never had to use it.
uVerse is a good value for the money. I waited a long time for AT&T to work out zoning issues with my city for placement of the equipment boxes, but it was worth it. The bottom line: highly reccomended.
