AT&T predicts it will install U-verse IPTV service in 10,000 homes a week by end of 2007September 20, 2007 – Ralph de la Vega, Group President of Regional Telecommunications and Entertainment for AT&T, has predicted that the US telco will be installing its U-verse fibre-based IPTV service in 10,000 homes a week by the end of 2007.
The executive also stated that installation time has been cut by one hour to six and a half hours, and further improvements are expected. AT&T recently announced that it has passed 100,000 subscribers for its U-verse service.
Mr. de la Vega also said that while telcos are paying more for TV programming than competitors from the worlds of cable and satellite, costs will fall into line with its competitors as the service grows. The executive added that AT&T is seeking deals with content providers in order provide services for both the TV screen and wireless handheld devices. |
