Xbox 360 to serve as a AT&T U-Verse set-top box later this year

We kind of covered it last night in the Live blog but it looks like AT&T and Microsoft have partnered up so that later this year you will be able to use your Xbox 360 as a set-top box for the AT&T U-Verse service.  This is a bit of a surprise as Microsoft has said in the past that their IPTV service would be limited to Europe.

I'm interested to see this will allow you to save money on a set-top box rental or no.  The service will also allow you to use your PC as a tuner (with a Cable Card I'm guessing) which is actually pretty sweet.  I've been thinking about making the jump to AT&T from Time Warner and this might actually push me over the edge.  Anyone with AT&T have any horror stories to tell?
