AT&T confirmed recent industry speculation by announcing today that it has launched its U-verse IPTV service in parts of the Los Angeles area. Part of the attraction of U-verse is its 27 HD channels, which are now available in parts of Altadena, Anaheim, Burbank, Fullerton, Garden Grove, Glendale, Laguna Niguel, Orange County, Santa Ana, Santa Clarita, Simi Valley (Ventura County) and Tustin. In addition, parts of the city of Riverside, County of Riverside, Corona and Norco have U-verse available now as well.
For those of you who live in the L.A. area, you know too well the problems that dominant cable provider Time Warner has been experiencing with the integration of the former Adelphia and Comcast properties into its cable system. My guess is that with AT&T U-verse and Verizon FiOS TV now available throughout much of L.A., Time Warner Cable will be forced to implement some fairly major changes quickly if it hopes to stay ahead of its competition.
Here's the official announcement.
