Finally got the mailing from AT&T concerning their offer for T.V. & "high" speed internet. As I had mentioned before they have fiber within 3/4 mile from our home and the linemen had been working on the poles for months.
The TV package is $54.00 a month for just the basics but the flyer does say you can record up to 4 shows at one time and watch them on any TV in the house. It also says you can program the TV from your wireless phone or your computer. Another bullet point says you can follow 4 channels at once and know when to switch at the optimum time by using "Multiview". (screen in screen?) Then there are several packages that include various combinations of TV, internet, home phone and cell (I bet the iPhone won't be included in the cell package). The lowest combination is $99.00 a month for 70 channels, but you then pay another $10.00 a month for High Def. service. The download speeds on this package are a stunning 3 mps. The middle package is $127.00 a month, giving you 300 channels, still paying another $10.00 a month for high def., the download speeds are "stunning" at 6 mps. The high end package is $147.00 a month, giving you 390 channels, no high def charge and the download speeds are (hold your hat) 12 mps. Some good features with the TV but I sure was expecting more with the internet speeds.
