The video labs at AT&T's Atlanta HQ are not located on the higher floors of its 47-story Midtown Center where, between demos, you can casually scrape a view of the city through giant windows. You know, where you might expect to see the future of TV. Instead, they're buried down on the second floor in a building a few doors down, in a plain gray room, whose only exceptional attribute is a wall of TVs—eight total including two 60-inchers—which are hooked up to experimental U-verse IPTV DVR boxes. In this room, sitting on the single blue-green couch, you can stare up and see the future—TV-to-phone video calling, iPhones as remote controls, on-screen visual voicemail, MST3K-style chat while viewing and more—TV as you will hopefully know it in the next couple of years.
Of course there no news from ATT when they will be adding third or forth HD Streams, or Faster Internet access.
On the other hand, with the ddition of Four National HD and two Local HD Channels and
2HD/2SD. Yes ATT has a history of beening late of rolling out new
features and adding new channels. But compared to the Bi-annual Prices
hike from Comcast. I figure in the long Run ATT will be the Better
option for the Price and features I am looking for.
