Great Neck, NY | Meeting Date of 5/20!
How about including the meeting date of 5/20! It's in the AP story:
The agreement must be approved by the city's Franchise and Concession Review Committee, which scheduled a public hearing for May 20.
1st step of a long process! |

| FiOS is more gooder than TwC
I signed up last week in Rosedale, Queens and I'm lovin it, but it would be nice if they hurried up with the FIOSTV so I can ditch Directv already.
But I'm afraid once all is said and done, not only will all of NYC have FiOS, our bills will double as well. Talk about a FiOS monopoly... |

Re: FiOS is more gooder than TwC
This most likely will not mean lower rates at all, especially with the recent price increases Verizon has rolled out. It's a nice theory to challenge TWC but I still don't think the consumer will win out in the end.

Did NYC check to make sure Verizon didn't have their fingers crossed when they said 100% or did they say it with an asterisk?? |

I'm guessing verizon has (or will have) their own special definition of 100% by the time 2014 rolls around. |

I mean really. Who gives a big RATS a$$? Now, if they said all 10 markets (or whatever ever the small number is, I pulled 1o out of my rear) they are deployed in, then it might just get back page press.  |

You got your coverage years ago. If you call up Verizon right now and order a T3, will they give it to you or say no (regardless of price)? |

Verizon did wire PA. All you have to do it call up and order a T3 and you will get your fiber service. |

28% of Verizon customers can get FIOS. »Re: haha
FIOS is not an employee only or trial of 20 customers. Its real. 28% is a very large amount of work Verizon did. |
