AT&T Rolls Out More U-verse Enhancements at No Additional Cost to Customers

Upgrades Include Exclusive Total Home DVR Feature, Broadband Speed Increase,
New On Demand App and More

DALLAS, June 16 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Since its launch three years ago,
AT&T U-verse(SM) has continually evolved and added new features. This month,
AT&T* will rollout another series of enhancements that make AT&T U-verse even
better for customers. Today and over the coming weeks, AT&T U-verse will add
-- at no extra cost as part of customers' existing subscriptions -- upgraded
DVR capabilities and user interface enhancements for all customers, increased
downstream speeds for AT&T U-verse High Speed Internet Max residential and
business customers, and a new On Demand Top Picks application for customers in
select markets.

"Turning on the TV and seeing something new is what AT&T U-verse customers
have come to expect from us," said Jeff Weber, vice president of video
services for AT&T Mobility and Consumer Markets. "These latest upgrades are
further examples of how we're using Internet Protocol (IP) technology to give
you more control and more value. With AT&T U-verse, you're getting DVR
capabilities you can't find from any cable providers, exciting and useful
apps, and faster broadband speeds. We're giving you an advanced entertainment
experience, and this is still only the beginning."

The U-verse enhancements announced today include:

Exclusive new AT&T U-verse Total Home DVR feature. AT&T U-verse Total Home DVR
capabilities will be expanded market-by-market in the upcoming weeks to add
the ability to schedule and manage recordings from any U-verse receiver -- a
feature exclusive to AT&T among multi-room DVRs. The feature adds even more
convenience and control over recorded shows by allowing customers to set or
delete recordings from any room in their home, instead of from the DVR
receiver room only. The enhancement follows the launch of Total Home DVR in
2008, which allows all U-verse DVR customers to watch standard and High
Definition recorded shows on up to eight connected TVs in the home -- all from
a single DVR.

Free speed increase for AT&T U-verse Internet Max customers. All AT&T U-verse
High Speed Internet Max customers have been given increased downstream speeds
from up to 10 Mbps to up to 12 Mbps -- a 20 percent increase in speed at no
extra cost. The faster up to 12 Mbps downstream speed is available to all new
and existing U-verse Internet residential and business customers who subscribe
to the Max service.

New On Demand Top Picks application. U-verse TV movie buffs will also have a
new way to find that perfect movie with On Demand Top Picks. The new
application will enable U-verse TV customers to view On Demand recommendations
based on their past video rental history and view a list of the top ten On
Demand titles U-verse TV customers are renting. The app will also give
customers the ability to rate a movie they have previously rented, which will
be averaged into other U-verse TV customer ratings and displayed next to the
title in the On Demand recommendations list. On Demand Top Picks will be
available to customers in Los Angeles, Cleveland, Hartford, St. Louis,
Atlanta, Sacramento, San Antonio and Austin within the next few weeks. AT&T
plans to make the app available to all U-verse TV customers next year.

Web Remote Access to DVR enhancements. U-verse TV customers will soon have a
new interface to schedule and manage their DVR recordings from any
web-connected PC. Powered by Yahoo!, the enhanced functionality enables faster
browsing of the program guide; sorting the program guide by genre, favorites
or High Definition (HD) channels; easily referencing recently recorded shows
and upcoming scheduled shows on a side panel; targeted searching by title,
actor, and channel; and personalizing favorite channels. U-verse TV customers
will also be able to utilize sub accounts -- in addition to their U-verse
master account login -- to access this app. AT&T was one of the first
providers to introduce online DVR control in November 2006, and brought
three-screen DVR access to all U-verse TV customers with Mobile Remote Access
to the DVR in April 2007. On average, more than 100,000 U-verse TV customers
use Web Remote Access every month to schedule and manage their recordings.

U-verse TV navigation improvements. U-verse TV customers will have a more
simple and streamlined way to navigate and find programming with enhancements
rolling out market-by-market along with the Total Home DVR upgrade. From
within the U-verse programming guide, users will be able to select Enter to
pull up a panel of options to jump to another channel, time or day to find the
programming you want to watch. Customers will also be able to select Enter
while watching live TV to bring up a side panel that allows them to select
from zoom and audio options.

Free movie month. As an added bonus, all U-verse TV customers will get even
more options for their summer entertainment with unlimited access to Starz at
no extra charge during July.

These upgrades are the latest examples of standard AT&T U-verse services and
applications that give customers more freedom and flexibility over their
entertainment experience. U-verse TV customers can also enjoy several other
integrated applications, including personalized, on-screen weather, sports,
traffic and stock information via AT&T U-bar; local and national weather
forecasts on-demand; the ability to view personal photos on your TV that you
have uploaded to flickr.com; remote access to the DVR from any web-connected
PC or wireless phone; and more.

AT&T's U-verse deployment is rapidly introducing competitive choice and
next-generation services to more consumers. AT&T U-verse customers enjoy
quadruple-play integration, enhanced features and greater value, all made
possible by IP technology. AT&T U-verse TV ranked "Highest in Residential
Television Service Satisfaction in the North Central, South, and West
Regions," according to the J.D. Power and Associates 2008 Residential
Television Service Provider Satisfaction Study(SM).
