You all may have seen this commercial, but I saw it for the first time this weekend. I think this commercial could have been Super Bowl quality, but they’re saving a ton of money showing it now instead right?
I loved the commercial, but wonder the size of viewing audience now instead of the size of the Super Bowl. But, I would say that you could probably show it multiple times on multiple station instead of once during the Super Bowl.

We have had a real misadventure with AT&T U-verse!! Susan and I signed up to replace our DSL and Time Warner cable service with U-verse. WHAT A MISTAKE!!!
If you do not mind that your net work be controlled ONLY by the AT&T router, that it's internal IP address is difficult to change, and the wifi speed is the "Fast" 54mbs instead of the 108mbs that has been available for the last 3 years. I also had problems maintaining wifi connections while online. It is very irritating to be working on a document online and suddenly have the connection dropped.
The TV boxes have a very unique set of issues. They respond ONLY to the AT&T remote. If you have a universal remote, forgetaboutit. If you have a home system where the TV box is remote from the TV, forgetaboutit. The IR signal used by the AT&T system cannot be reliably duplicated by universal remote or transmitted through a remote infrared system.
After three days we switched to Time Warner. Their customer service is atrocious, but the product is reliable and flexible. (It took 2 days and several hours on the telephone to correct a mistake they made in the order.) If we could create a company with the customer service focus of AT&T with the reliable, user friendly products of Time Warner life would be good. I attached a picture to show how U-verse receiver had to be installed with my TV.

That’s was a funny commercial but why pay more for your TV service? When looking for a TV service to go with there are a few things to consider. In my opinion those factors are HD channels, value, and technology. As far as HD channels go, DISH Network still has the most HD channels in the industry and the best equipment and value for the money. For example, as a DISH Network customer and employee I can tell you that U-Verse charges a $59 for the U100 package while DISH charges $44.99 for AT120. That’s $14 more than DISH for less channels. Another example is that DISH has the largest storage capacity for DVR’s in the industry (1 terabyte), and you can use the TV Everywhere feature using Sling technology. You can’t get that with U-Verse.

Actually, where I live (in an apartment) it is impossible to get any form of satellite, so we have to choose between Uverse or cable, and the cable company is horrible, so I have no complaints.
