I want my FIOS. I was told I might have to wait 10 years in my area.

Anyone know when north Jersey will get FiOS? Is there a website that has timetables for when areas will get it?

Thanks for the great review...Sadly it will be years where I live before I can even think of FIOS. This is why I have Wildblue and Dishnet.

As both are on the same transponder, if one is there, not sure what the problem with the other could be.

The programming guide looks a lot like the one Voom had with their Moto boxes.
Congrats on your new TV service... it definitely looks like a winner.

Having a choice of cable TV provider is great thing! The competition will have to improve PQ, pricing, services, and customer service in order to compete. It's a big win for consumers!
