AT&T stops offering Xbox 360 U-verse bundle until it can deliver an updated version

In a relatively strange fashion, ATT’s quietly pulled the plug on its U-verse kit for the Xbox 360 — at least for the time being. According to a note on its own site, the company’s taking some time to focus on “improving and enhancing” its U-verse bundle. This is probably a reference to the updated app (that would also require XBL Gold) ATT promised for the new dashboard with Kinect support and a new UI, but has yet to deliver. As Multichannel points out, earlier last week Netflix had filed a complaint with the FCC, claiming that ATT’s U-verse on Xbox violated network neutrality regulations — though, it’s unclear whether this had anything to do with the outfit’s decision to suspend the service. ATT has said the set-top kit won’t “be available until the new enhancements and functionality are added,” so we’d recommend not holding your breath for too long.
