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

I believe it stands for FIber Optic Service.

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.

I have not followed this. Can you supply a link or explain what the issue is with HDNET? 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!
