Big announcement by Verizon! (FiOS)

HAPPY HAPPY JOY JOY

Driving to work this morning, about 3 blocks from my house, one neighborhood over, I discovered work crews digging holes in people's yards and along the street. Very familiar looking holes. The workers didn't speak English, or didn't admit it, but a neighbor there said, yep, Verizon.

So Fios may soon be with me. Can't wait. I'll stick with Dish, but if that goes south, Fios TV would likely be the best alternative.

Ahhhhh, to be rid of the cableco entirely!
 

Thanks. I bumped mine from 5/2 to 20/5 today. Don't have Fios TV yet but the increased speed sure improves the way my Netflix Roku player works!
 
Well, I ended up going from 20/5 down to 10/2. Seems good enough. I was on 15/2 forever, and 10/2 seems almost the same. Slightly slower downloading from usenet, but now that I have to pay for it, the $7 less a month evens it out.

My 20/5 price jumped to 60.99/mo, but would have been 53/mo with a 1yr contract. The 10/2 is 43/mo with a 1yr contract. (Compared to the 15/2 for 50/mo no contract).

Smart choice, I'd hate to be in a contract like I am with DirecTV, but I am happy with DirecTV, 2+ years to go for my contract to expire eheh.
