So the first year has come and gone for AT&T’s popular U-verse service. The company says the service - which combines TV, Internet and telephone (not offered yet in our area) into one fast package - to now available to more than 355,000 homes in the area. No word on how many of those homes are actually customers at this moment.

Is your home included in that mix? You can use this link to find out.

Alas, it turns out that my North County home is not. However, it really wouldn’t matter, since I’m sort of locked into DirecTV and its all-important (to me) NFL football package.

I do wonder what people think about the service. Particularly those who’ve had satellite, cable and U-verse. Why do you like one over the others?
