Re: so much
said by djrobx  :said by XBL2009 :To bad it sucks and takes 6 hours and several techs to install. FTTH would have been a better long term investment. How long do you think U-verse will last? U-verse sucks way less than my cable company, and took only one installer about an hour and a half. A little over a half hour of that time was taken at the VRAD. I'm sure techs run into issues but the in-home portion of the install was not complicated in my case. Is this comment supposed to be positive? LOL
I think that your uverse sucks way more than whatever cableco you have and you are just being over zealous about that uverse thingie.
The funny thing is that you are comparing uverse with 20th century cable, well unless you compare it with that juggernaut called comcast with 50mbps internet and lots of low comp HD channels at least less compressed than uverse. I agree that most cable companies are not even trying but what will happen when the cablecos wake up? DOCSIS3.0, SDV etc it is going to be a massacre in non FIOS territory.
Other thing you failed to mention is that the vast majority of uverse TV subscribers will be very happy if they were allowed to drop the TV portion of the service. You even have FAQs in the uverse forum on how to do this. | |

The comment is what it is. I didn't say U-verse is the greatest thing ever did I? I think I was pretty clear - AT&T's strategy has caused some very unfortunate limitations. But despite this, it is MUCH better than what my cable company offers.

If Time Warner didn't suck worse, I'd never have dumped them. But I promise, TWC sucks really, really bad in my area. I owe AT&T no loyalty, and there's no contract. I also said DirecTV and Dish had superior TV products. I may switch to DirecTV to get better HD quality. But that will come with the expense of buying DVR equipment for my second TV, and right now paying for TV equipment is not something I want to do, when U-verse mostly meets my needs.
