AT&T has Trouble with Microsoft TV Software

John Blau writes on InfoWorld:

Like several other operators deploying Microsoft's Internet television software, AT&T has encountered some technical glitches -- but isn't saying specifically what they are.

AT&T CEO Ed Whitacre conceded in a conference call to analysts last week that the U.S. network operator had experienced some technical problems in the launch of its new IPTV (Internet Protocol television) service, which caused a series of delays.

In the webcast conference call, Whitacre said the delays and difficulties were not related to the company's fiber-to-the-node network architecture, which "is performing better than anticipated," but rather to "software programming." He provided no further details.

A company spokesman also declined to comment on the software problems.
