Can you please tell me when

Can you please tell me when U-Verse will be offered in my city. I live in Kimberly, Wi. 54136. When U-Verse went online in Appleton last year they had told me I could get it in 2009. Can I get any updates on a release time. I currently have Dish Network and my contract is up this summer and I don't want to renew with them . I'm really interested in U-Verse and its bundle packages.Any info would be great.

Thanks Jeffrey

Unfortunately due to

Unfortunately due to competitive reasons availability dates are not even released to employees let alone the general public. The only way to get an idea if it is eventually coming to your area is if you find a VRAD (http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t60/uverseuser/vrad2.jpg or http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1322/1414034185_fbf3d4cadc.jpg?v=1190327547) near your home. The closer it is the better your odds are. As for Kimberly the only area that I am aware of that has service right now is near 441, south of Kimberly Ave, off of S Rodger St and W 3rd St. The VRAD is in Van Daalwyk Park.

I've seen the Vrad boxes in

I've seen the Vrad boxes in Darboy just down the road and Appleton New-berry St. just west of Kimberly. I will just keep an eye out for some new boxes. Thanks
