ROCKY HILL, Conn., March 30 -- Wilton residents now have a new choice for their television and communications services powered by the most advanced technology. AT&T* today announced the launch of AT&T U-verse(SM) services in parts of Wilton, including AT&T U-verse TV, AT&T U-verse High Speed Internet and AT&T U-verse Voice. The introduction of these services is part of an ongoing expansion of AT&T U-verse availability across Connecticut.
AT&T U-verse services, which are delivered over AT&T's advanced Internet Protocol (IP) network, offer an alternative to cable and an unmatched experience for customers. AT&T U-verse brings together TV, broadband, home phone and AT&T wireless services - all on one bill - with unique features that provide a new level of integration, convenience and control.

Local residents have asked for more choices in television service and today we're delivering."
"Cable has been the only game in town for too long, and we're excited to change that today in Wilton," said Steve Krom, vice president and general manager for AT&T in New England. "We know customers in Fairfield County want a better choice to break free from cable, and AT&T U-verse is the answer. And we'll continue to make U-verse TV even better for customers with regular upgrades and cool new applications that enhance the television experience."
