Just in time to help me make a decision about what to do to escape from our crappy and extortionately priced cable service comes word of a new addition to AT&T's U-Verse TV-by-fiber service: Real-life explosions to enhance those Spike channel movies.
Trade publication Light Reading says the telco giant is going to have to replace 17,000 batteries in curbside network cabinets after reports of four catching on fire and one exploding.
Pardon me, please, while I try to jump-start the apocalypse by placing a Sony-powered laptop next to a U-Verse box.
