QUOTE In a move seemingly designed to further our frustrations with broadband providers, Time Warner Cable has soft-announced an "unlimited" package once its new data caps go into place... for an affordable $150 monthly charge. Congratulations Time Warner customers!
... Here's a rundown of what the COO proposes:

I have really liked U-verse so far, just difficult to find it so far. It's spreading around Houston pretty well.
Christine one piece of advice, don't rely on AT&T's website to decide if it's available in your area. You should call them like once a week, hound the hell out of them, talk to 10 different operators, and you'll find out for sure. Their website is hardly ever updated. Hell it still says it's not available at my house and we've had it for nearly a year. |

No point in switching now, but I'll hound them when I know where we'll be moving. -------------------- |

I did find out (via website) that Uverse is available in the main neighborhood we've been looking at. So yay.
