New Cisco IP Set Top Boxes Spotted at AT&T Store

Spotted in the wild:  Cisco's new IP Set Top Box for AT&T's U-verse.

I happened to be meandering in an AT&T store in San Antonio and spotted this display.

It's bird.  It's a plane.  No, it's a Cisco IPT V set top box for AT&T's U-verse offering.

How to Order A Pay-Per-View Event on U-verse

Wanna rent a special Pay-Per-View Event on U-verse?

Real easy.

• Press GUIDE on your AT&T remote control.  Go to Pay Per View Channel 102 by using the up / down browse arrows.
• Select the program you want to order and then press OK.  A  Program Info screen will appear showing you the event time and how much the event will cost.
• Press OK and if there are Parental Locks in place, you will need to enter your PIN.
• You will then be asked to confirm your order.  Just press OK and you're good to go..  Want to go to live TV, just press EXIT.
• Be sure to tune in to the event's channel at the scheduled starting time.  If you are late, you can't rewind what you missed.  (sort of like being on time to the movies).  However, unlike VOD, you can record your Pay Per View event to your DVR and watch the event at your convenience.
