AT&T U-VERSE ARRIVES IN NORTHEAST WISCONSIN
Northeast Wisconsin Customers Benefit From Advanced Technology, Compelling
Features and Video Choice
GREEN BAY, Wis., June 26, 2008 — Northeast Wisconsin-area residents have a new — and
better — choice for their television and communications services. AT&T Inc. (NYSE:T) today
announced the launch of AT&T U-verseSM TV and AT&T U-verse High Speed Internet in the area.
AT&T is now taking orders for the service and will begin installing services for new customers on
June 30.
AT&T U-verse brings together your TV, broadband and AT&T wireless services ― all on one
bill ― with unique features that provide a new level of integration, convenience and control. AT&T
U-verse services are all delivered over AT&T’s advanced Internet Protocol (IP) network.
Customers can currently order AT&T U-verse services in parts of more than a dozen local
communities, including Appleton, Fond du Lac, Green Bay and Oshkosh. AT&T will make U-verse
services available to more homes throughout the area on an ongoing basis. The service is also
available in parts of the Milwaukee and Racine metro areas.
“We‘re thrilled to be able to provide more customers in Wisconsin with real choice in
television services,” said Scott T. VanderSanden, president of AT&T Wisconsin. “Thanks in part to the
passage of the Wisconsin Video Competition Act, AT&T is bringing new and innovative video
products to more Wisconsin consumers.”
AT&T is the only national service provider to offer a 100 percent IP-based television (IPTV)
service. IP technology helps make AT&T U-verse TV one of the most dynamic and feature-rich
services available today, with advanced capabilities customers don’t get from other providers and
access to more than 40 High Definition (HD) channels.
“With AT&T U-verse, consumers now have a new choice for TV that offers more HD
channels, includes in most plans a DVR that can record up to four channels at once and is
100 percent digital for superior picture quality,” said John DeVaul, AT&T general manager for
Wisconsin. ”With professional installation included, programming options like Big Ten Network and
NFL Network in HD and up to one month free and $100 cash back, there is no better time to make
the switch.”
Where available, local AT&T U-verse customers can enjoy numerous TV benefits, including:

An attractive selection of TV packages. You can choose from a variety of subscription
options that feature up to 320 channels, including digital music, local, movie and sports
programming, as well as premium Spanish-language and international packages. All
packages include HD-capable equipment, and most packages include an HD-capable
digital video recorder (DVR). (More receivers can be added for $5 each a month.)

More HD channels than the major local cable providers, with an extensive lineup of more
than 40 HD channels. U-verse TV supports both 720p and 1080i formats. Access to HD
service is $10 a month with any U-verse TV package.

The ability to set your DVR from any location. With AT&T Yahoo! Web and Mobile
Remote Access to DVR, you can schedule recordings from any Web-connected PC or
compatible AT&T mobile phone (wireless service charges apply) by using your AT&T High
Speed Internet account.

The ability to record up to four programs at once using a DVR (up to four standard
definition programs or two HD and two standard definition programs) — another feature
exclusive to AT&T U-verse TV.

AT&T Online Photos from Flickr, which lets you simply and conveniently browse the
photos you’ve uploaded to flickr.com and watch slide shows on your U-verse TV screen
from the comfort of your couch.

AT&T U-bar, which brings customizable weather, stock, sports and traffic information to the
U-verse TV screen, without interrupting the current program. AT&T High Speed Internet
subscribers can personalize the U-bar from the AT&T portal to display weather at specific
locations, your personal stock portfolio and scores for your favorite sports teams.

YELLOWPAGES.COM TV, for fast and easy searches to find local businesses and other
information via your TV screen.

AT&T Yahoo! Games, so you can now play your favorite online games — including
Sudoku, Solitaire, JT’s Blocks, Mah-jongg Tiles and Chess — on the TV screen.

Built-in Picture-in-Picture, which lets you channel-surf on any television without leaving
the program you’re watching.

A growing Video On Demand (VOD) library with one-touch access to movies and events.

Advanced search to find upcoming linear or VOD programs by using the title or an actor’s
name.

Easy-to-use parental controls to block live programs, recorded programs or videos by
specific channel or ratings.

Specially designed U-verse receivers. All U-verse receivers are HD-capable and include
universal remote controls with backlit buttons and one-touch access to VOD, recorded TV
and other popular U-verse features.
AT&T U-verse offers multiple combinations of TV and Internet packages to customize your
experience. U-verse TV offers five programming packages — U100, U200, the popular U300 and
U400 packages, plus U-family, a market-leading family-friendly programming option. Current AT&T
U-verse TV pricing starts at $44 a month, depending on the selected programming package (taxes,
fees and other monthly charges apply).
Professional installation of all U-verse services is included for new U-verse TV customers,
and you also get a 30-day money-back guarantee. Customers who order a qualifying programming
package by phone through Sept. 20, 2008, are eligible to choose a free month of the U200, U300
or U400 package or a $50 cash-back redemption by gift check. Customers who order a qualifying
TV package online will receive a free month of the TV package. Additional cash-back offers are
available to qualifying customers who bundle Internet service.
AT&T U-verse High Speed Internet offers more bandwidth and faster available speeds to
meet the needs of every consumer or small business broadband user, including four package
options:

Max: Downstream speeds up to 10.0 Mbps, upstream speeds up to 1.5 Mbps

Elite: Downstream speeds up to 6.0 Mbps, upstream speeds up to 1.0 Mbps

Pro: Downstream speeds up to 3.0 Mbps, upstream speeds up to 1.0 Mbps

Express: Downstream speeds up to 1.5 Mbps, upstream speeds up to 1.0 Mbps
All AT&T U-verse High Speed Internet packages include wireless home or office networking
at no extra cost, giving customers the freedom to access online photos, receive and send large
data files, view streaming video and access other high-bandwidth applications from a wirelessenabled laptop or other device. Subscribers also receive virtually unlimited e-mail storage, powerful
anti-virus and anti-spam software and access to the nation’s largest Wi-Fi network with free
unlimited connectivity at more than 17,000 hot spot locations, including more than 7,000 U.S.
company-operated Starbucks locations.
AT&T is expanding U-verse services in Wisconsin thanks in part to legislation co-written by
Rep. Phil Montgomery, R-Ashwaubenon; and Sen. Jeff Plale, D-Milwaukee; and sponsored by
numerous legislators, including Sen. Dave Hansen, D-Green Bay. The Video Competition Act,
signed by Gov. Jim Doyle, provides an environment that encourages new video providers, such as
AT&T, to invest in Wisconsin to compete against incumbent cable providers.
“The Video Competition Act is helping bring a real alternative to cable TV to families across
Wisconsin,” Montgomery said. “In addition to this new competition in the Green Bay and Fox Cities
area, cable competitors are receiving new state franchises in other parts of the state and bringing
needed choice to residents in those areas.”
Hansen said: "This is what the Video Franchise Act was all about — opening up
competition to give consumers greater choices in the video market and creating new jobs like
those resulting from this new system."
AT&T is deploying next-generation AT&T U-verse services as part of its mission to connect
people with their world, everywhere they live and work, and do it better than anyone else. Through
AT&T U-verse and the company’s 100 percent IP platform, consumers will benefit from integrated
AT&T services across the three screens they value most: the TV, the PC and the wireless phone.
