Re: AT&T has big plans for U-Verse

Who wants this service, anyway? I don't see any advantage over DSL on the broadband side. Is it better than cable or satellite for TV service? Also, they had better be prepared to offer everything in HDTV, as that is the way everyone is going.
Playing devil's advocate this time (or should I say Darth Vader or something), U-Verse can limp along with HD pretty well: with good codecs and delivery, they can deliver what the customers order, if it's just HD they're talking about. Even though Deathstar's TV lineup right now sucks, it doesn't have to continue sucking; they could Comcastify it (Comcast's slogan for improving their network to the point of making it wholy worthwhile and modern) or equivilant after they've already done the equipment installations.

They can also deliver more broadband too.

What they can't do is deliver high quality broadband and hands-down high room number HD streams; for that, they'd probably just ask you to order extra lines.
