Still... today.. In Oak Lawn, my mother can not get U-Verse. She is on one of the main roads of the city... about 1 mile from the city hall... No U-Verse yet (need to get her off COMCAST)
In Orland Park... My In-Laws.. nope, can't get U-Verse. Not at their home, Not at their business, nor even at my old home address. They too are on a major road in Orland Park, less then two miles from one of the largest malls in the area.
When I lived there... I was one of the first to get DSL (almost 8 years ago now)... My In-Laws... one of the first areas to get upgraded digital cable and other services... but no UVerse
Brother is in Alsip... blocks from I-294 and Cicero ave... No UVerse available.
Sister is in Wheeling... not even a mile from the main high school... No UVerse available.
Tinley Park, where I live now... supposidly has been wired up, when you talk to the tech's... and we are in an area, that they have been working on for a while now.... nope... can't get UVerse here either.
So what am I getting at... U-Verse right now, is still just marketing and advertising here for most of the people in the areas that they say can get it.
You call and ask... they give you a run-around, and they have "no-eta" on when it will be available...
So where "is it" available exactly... That is a LOT of cities that "should" have it...
