Default Who's your cable provider?

Just getting opinions, I'm really focused on opinions on AT&T U-verse service. Does anyone have that in particular. I was thinking about getting there TV, Internet, home phone, and cell phone service since I already use AT&T for cell phones. Seems to be cheaper if I end up getting everything from AT&T. I'm staying away from Dish. I know you benefit more HD wise from satellite but I've been to a few homes where if they have a bad storm the reception goes down quite a bit, so I would prefer sticking with cable.

For the most part Comcast has been the only option in Chicago and they rape us so I'm looking for options after I move

Dish Network.... Tbo(sp?) is great(where you can pause tv, rewind it, or record a show and save it).

as far as @ home cable goes.... i have the comcast triple play.... i like it. Ive never had to call and only had 2 power cycles in the last8 months... i think both were my fault.
i just get basic cable (~100 channels), free long distance phone (not voip) with CID, CW, etc, and pretty good download speeds for the net
whole package is a whopping 99$ (130$ actual bill)

Looking for TV Cable providers never had any problems with finding internet.

Probably should have titled the thread AT&T U-Verse thats what I'm really looking for experiences with

TWC here, I used to have the accelerated package but it was more money. Never realized it but I'm sure it was way faster than this. I'm gonna check my work computer on Monday. it's a very large network. Dam and I thought I had pretty quick internet here at home..
