We tried to get U-verse several years ago. It took almost 2 hours one night to get signed up by a kid that came to the door. Then, we had a guy sitting around for 4 or 5 hours one Saturday. It turned out that I wasn't close enough to the CO to get it. Back then, the price was quite a bit cheaper. Since then they've continued to try to get us to sign up, but the price has gone up and there's no good reason to switch now.

We're looking to try to save money, while retaining similar service. The DirecTV stuff looks like it should definitely be cheaper at least for a couple of years.

It looks like Dish is about the same as DTV.

I just don't think there are really any other decent options out there (other than canning the stuff completely).

Thanks
