AT&T Selling U-Verse at Retail Outlets

Beginning this month, AT&T will sell its U-verse high-speed Internet and video service at 600 Wal-Mart and Circuit City stores, Reuters reports, in an effort to step up competition against cable service providers.

The company said in a statement that the retail deals, the first for U-verse, would help create a powerful distribution channel and provide customers with a convenient way to order the service. Verizon and AT&T together are working hard to compensate for losses in their landline businesses by offering high-speed internet and video services.
