AT&T U-Verse Mobile Comes Preloaded on Windows Phone 7

Microsoft announced this morning that because of the partnership with AT&T for Windows Phone 7, each WP7 device launching on November 8th will come preloaded with AT&T U-Verse Mobile. U-Verse is AT&T's television service that will allow you to check your guide, record shows, and even download television content for viewing on your phone. It will have similar functionality to the current iPhone app, but hopefully it won't have the same restrictions. For instance, in order to download television content to your phone, you have to have at least the U300 package or higher.

AT&T will provide a 30-day free trial of U-Verse Mobile as well as a free trial of Microsoft's Zune Pass -- both to increase the usability of entertainment features. An Xbox Live game by the name of Ilomilo will also be available exclusively on AT&T Windows Phone 7 handsets.
