Transfer Cap?
2 questions:
1) with the 300 meg/s service, what's the upload side?
2) What's the monthly or other cap on data transfer if any ?

1) I haven't seen this published.
2) 1 TB/month.
Correction on 1): I have seen this published: "GigaPoweroffers upstream speeds 20 times faster than what's available today". Interpreting this as 20 times the 6 Mbps upstream available for 45 Mbps downstream, then the upstream speed would be 120 Mbps.
This is only my interpretation.

According to this PR it is symetrical. http://www.att.com/shop/u-verse/gigapower.html#fbid=YM624_pob5r

The only remaining question is WHEN. 🙂
I just put the order in this morning, and the system says to wait 24 hrs to see when.....
300/120 or even 300/50 will do nicely.....
(I've been doing between 250g and 400g /month on TWC, so the 1TB is fine.
It would be nice(tm) if the exact speeds and caps were more easily accessable to us. 🙂

I found the cap in the offer details link on the ordering site. The other came from the press releases available almost anywhere (and knowing the 6 Mbps is the maximum VDSL2 upstream rate currently available).
I don't know whether AT&T will be enforcing this 1 TB/month cap or not, as they have, but do not enforce, a cap on VDSL2 users of 250 GB/month.

I wouldn't be surprised if they didn't enforce it except for folks REALLY abusing (multi-TB/mo) the service.
having worked in the ISP biz in the late 90s/early 2000's I can understand NOT saying unlimited 🙂

Agree with your first point. And I undestand not saying unlimited as well, but you and I are definitely in the minority.
