Looks like At&t want to kill themselves in this race for more subscribers, not only do their internet speeds suck for both their dsl,u-verse, but they raise rates like this?
What motivation do they have keeping the prices the same? If cable keeps moving the bar, you better believe ATT will go along. They've probably maxxed out the cheap dsl market, Uverse deployment is stagnating, monies got to come from somewhere...especially with Apples hand out for a billion!

Maybe because U-Verse is a new deployment? I don't know how they expect to gain customers if they keep up the rate hikes, how many u-verse paying customers do they have atm? 1million? Only people that will buy u-verse service are the ones that don't want caps at comcast (but then at&t is also said to be working on caps) or they are to dumb to shop around.

I still find it funny that At&t went with DSL technology over FTTH. What a damn waste of money.
