Is there a Phase 4?

[JRocksIllini]

I believe my area received the Phase 3 updates last year, and I was wondering if anyone knew what AT&T is focusing on next? Are they working to have everyone upgraded before moving onto a "Phase 4" or are there updates in the works?

Besides adding additional tuners (watch/record over 4 things at once) I'm not sure what else could be on their list, so I'm hoping someone knows more

TIA

There is no "Phase 4" per se of Total Home DVR (THDVR).  THDVR was rolled out in 3 phases: 

          Phase 1:  The ability to watch a recorded program from any TV

          Phase 2:  The ability to schedule and delete recordings from any TV 

          Phase 3:  The ability to do trick play (pause, rewind, fast forward) on live TV from any TV

The 3 phased rollout of THDVR is now complete.  Have there been and will there continue to be other firmware updates?  Yes, but they will not be part of the phased rollout of THDVR.

One thing that would push my divorce further out into the future would be if there could be two or three "recorded show accounts" so that my 40 shows (races, monty python, motorcycles, shooting, etc.) would not be scattered about in her 80 shows (cooking, shopping, soap operas, reality shows, etc.).  She rags on me several times daily about this, and we don't even have u-verse installed yet.

To make her happy, you can record no programs on the DVR.  In that way, all the recorded programs will be hers.

Delay the inevitable?   That is too funny.

Yuuup - I bet every U-Verse husband has heard the same thing, "you sure have lots of shows on here, to watch!"  And of course, I say (without thinking), "Me?!  You've got 6 "The Doctors," 7 "Dr. Oz's," 8 "Ellens" and I have lots of shows on the DVR?"
