The new AT&T may not be the old AT&T but their name isn't the only thing they kept.. they also inherited their "everyone is stupid, we're smart" attitude. |

I had this big hand that I could reach into ATT and pluck out all the stupidity. This company could be good if you shaved off the top 3 tiers of management. |

| Double The Orders Every Day For Three Weeks
Everyone remember that quote? FTA the real truth:
"Hodulik says AT&T is currently adding about 100 U-verse customers a day. In March, he expects that figure to ramp up to about 300 a day."
I think we can see what the new turd bird is.
There is FTTP at my new house but it's no faster then Time Warners internet service. TW will also be $35/mo cheaper for a triple play so alas I will be saying good bye to AT&T in 3 weeks. |

The article: It will launch next week in Dallas-Fort Worth...
No kidding? I haven't heard anything about it here, and I'm smack in the middle of an at&t area. They haven't even been doing any digging... -- Opinions expressed here are mine and not my employer's. This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights. |

Microsoft must have straightened them out also as they aren't blaming them anymore and the economics have changed as its costs will remain the same to rollout less than half of the homes targeted originally.
"Cook says Microsoft's IPTV software isn't to blame: "We're building a brand new service from scratch, and we want to make sure we do it right the first time." |

They only launch in `parts of` MSA's. If there is 300 houses that they pass somewhere they will say they launched in DFW. |

Yeah, same here..... it's wishful thinking, but cutting back VDSL deployments make sense if they are seriously reconsidering FTTH.
I was really hoping for more (especially in my area), if only to give comcast a competitive shove. |

Realistically, the stupidity and monopoly mentality come more from SBC than from ATT, which was in competitive markets for a couple of decades....
