I ordered Millennium back in April and it was installed 1 week later. The installation almost didn't happen because for some reason it was rescheduled in their system but we talked to customer support and they had someone come out the same day instead of giving us the run around.
I went with Millennium to compete with the dominate providers in the area Comcast and Verizon. For the products I have Digital Cable with HBO, CIN, SHO, MOV, STRZ and HSI 6Mbps package I am paying about $60 a month. I had to pay $25 for install but no big deal. The speeds that I get right now are clocking in at 4.5 to 5.8Mbps. upstream is constantly at 980Kbps which is great. Never used their email service or the portal page since I have no need for it. The Digital TV service is clear and has allot of variety but no VOD :-( They did say that will be available in the near future. I could imagine that being a small provider might make it a little challenging to over the latest and greatest services. They also have a decent set of HD channels I am getting about 40+ HD channels.
Well to wrap up I would recommend new users to Millennium in the Glen Burnie area of MD.

Well, since my last post...they upgraded the service to 16/2 in Glen Burnie, MD and the speeds have beeen clocking between 11.3 to 14.6 down and 1.4 to 1.7 up. So I have to say they did the upgrade as promised now I am just waiting for VOD which is supposed to be out later this quarter.
I do have one issue with the Motorola HD-DVR...on some channels it pixelates and gives a horrible picture at times.. but it hasn't been to bad were I would cancel I just think when they take their signal all digital than it would be better. Right now it's Hybrid Analog/Digital/HD and they DVR is buffering or recording an analog signal.
The OS for the DVR should get some improvements as well and please Broadstripe add some new networks i.e. The WORD network and Boomerang to name a few. I miss the Flintstones  and the Jetsons!
