AT&T has added a reported 30 High-Definition channels to their U-Verse IPTV service, viewable with the Motorola VIP 1216 HD set-top box. The HD programming lineup will first appear in San Antonio, where the service was initially rolled out.
The HD service is still
being tested but AT&T plans to deploy the service in the near future. Based on the initial reviews, the quality is superb.
The downfall? Users can only stream 1 HD channel at a time per household.
The HD programming package will tally up a $10 charge on the monthly bill but AT&T plans to provide an introductory two month free offer for the service until March.
