Regrets concerning architectural choices? Yeah, I'll bet AT&T is having a few. I know its customers surely have some too. -- AT&T Changes Terms of Service, Fastest U-Verse Subscribers Will See Slowdowns Excerpt (from TOS): "In order to provide a consistently high-quality video service, AT&T Uverse High Speed Internet throughput speeds may be temporarily reduced when a customer is using other U-verse services in a manner that requires high bandwidth. This could occur more often with higher speed Internet access products. It may be necessary, for some AT&T High Speed Internet users, for AT&T to set a maximum downstream speed on a customer line to enhance the reliability and consistency of performance." gizmodo.com -- Suddenly triple-play in AT&T-land has become three "partial" plays.
