When we spoke with AT&T last September (http://www.thegng.org/shownews/87545) about when their U-Verse VDSL & IPTV service would finally reach BellSouth territory, the company told us it would happen before the end of 2007. While technically that was true, the small Atlanta launch market was more of a trial (200 families) than a real commercial launch. AT&T today announced (http://www.att.com/gen/press-room?pid=4800&cdvn=news&newsarticleid=25583) that the Atlanta launch market has expanded, though they're not doling out any numbers.
"AT&T has made a commitment to help customers in the Southeast benefit from faster and wider delivery of innovative new services like AT&T U-verse," said Sylvia Anderson, AT&T Georgia president. While AT&T has only launched U-Verse in one BellSouth-territory market so far, that should change quickly. Our users have spotted VRADS (http://www.thegng.org/forum/r20012142-Vrad-or-not-Chattangooa-Tn) in Chattanooga, Tennessee, while technicians claim a summer South Florida launch (http://www.thegng.org/forum/r20362446-UVerse-in-South-Florida-Summer-2008).
