JD Power completed a customer satisfaction survey that put U-verse on top for television service providers. FIOS came in a close second place. Providers were judged on overall satisfaction, performance and reliability, customer service, cost, billing and offering and promotions. U-Verse got high marks across the board, so apparently there is more to tv service than just the quality and number of streams that are available.
They study also reports that 90% of households have at least 1 HDTV. I know HDTVs have been flying off the shelves, but I find this number hard to believe as I still know quite a few people without a single HDTV.

AT&T is still on track to pass 1 million subs by end of year, but to do that they need to average 200k installs for the final two quarters.

Here are the highlights from this investor conference.
U-verse is in 43 markets and has passed 10 million units. Market penetration is greater than 14% in markets open more than a year. This number continue to rise. Still on track for 1 million subscribers by year end and 30M units passed in 2010. 60% of U-verse subs are coming from cable. 1/3 were not previous ATT customers. More than 90% are attaching internet service to the video product.
All markets have 40+ HD channels with more on the way by year end. 2HD being rolled out now. 4HD will be able to fit int he current 25meg profile, however I cant imagine this leaving much room for internet.
25% use remote dvr programming. 50% have used u-bar. 50% of those with flickr accounts have used the u-verse flickr service. WHDVR still scheduled for 2H08. There is an interactive weather service planned, maybe it will be good enough to replace on the 8s. There will be a channel mosaic feature to group channels by genre. There will be an Olympics app in Q3 that will make it easy to get medal count and find Olympics programming. I have little doubt this app will be a big hit.
ATT gave 50 satisified cable customer a U-verse taste test. This group favored U-verse 4 to 1 on various metrics.
ATT now has 17,000 wifi hotspots.

You can now complete the triple play in Detroit by adding the 1000 minute plan for $10 or the unlimited plan for $20. Hopefully these prices will spread to other markets where the voice product is available.
