AT&T Launches in-Home Tech Assistance

AT&T, taking aim at Best Buy’s Geek Squad and other tech services, has launched a 50-state in-home support service for computers, TVs, broadband, wireless and more.

Prices start at just $69 — and you don’t have to be an AT&T customer to use the service. Called ConnecTech, the new service is not available to businesses.

The service, about nine months in development, grew out of a recognition that life for tech consumers is becoming increasingly complicated as new, even more sophisticated devices and services are introduced, says Carmen Nava, AT&T’s senior vice president of consumer marketing operations.
