I'm so jealous.  I've been stalking that service since they reported it was available in Raleigh.  But the rollout is going slow for various reasons I can't enumerate.  The store said Cary is on the five year plan and I live in Holly Springs so who knows when I'll get it.

I am in west Raleigh just inside the city limits and U-Verse is not available for my neighborhood either. But I live in hope :). TWC has been having annoyingly frequent network outages, I would switch today if U-Verse was available.

I also concur with Ron about a strong dislike for the "new and improved" UI in the software for the TWC DVRs.

The DVRs look really sweet because they're supposed to record up to four things at once.  And honestly, it's been a fantasy to have fiber to the door since I first learned about networking.

Just FYI -- I received an AT&T U-Verse flyer in the mail yesterday, at my Raleigh home address.  I checked my address at uverse.att.com and, sure enough, the service is available.  No voice just yet, but orders are being accepted for IP and TV.

IP service is tiered out with service at 1.5/1/$33, 3/1/$38, 6/1/$43, 10/1.5/$55 and 18/1.5/$65. (MbpsDown/MbpsUp/$ @ unbundled rate)

I haven't spent much time looking at the TV service, but it looks like they have a better HD line-up than TWC (not hard to accomplish) and their set top box software would have to really stink to not be a massive improvement over TWC's.
