Do make sure everything is in place for a smooth changeover, especially power and water. You'll end up with a moldy place to live without A/C around here and the neighbors frown on dried grass, although it is a bit more common on the historic side since many lawns have no sprinkler system whatsoever.
Forget AT&T -- they don't service TV. Your choices are ComCast, Embarq (now CenturyLink), the Dish and Direct TV. You don't have to get everything (cable, internet, phone) from one provider although you can usually get a deal by bundling. For phone, many don't even have a landline, just their cells. MagicJack and Vonage are also getting pretty popular.
Congrats on your purchase!

I drive thru the historic villages all the time and don't see much dried grass - everybody and I know there has sprinklers (including three homes with relatives).
