| FIOS scheduled for Bronx NY yet? I don't know if it's here yet. I know there's folks reporting it live in some parts of Long Island, so I figured I'd ask. |

| Just called, not there yet. 
Bummer... The lady did say if I do witness increased Verizon techie activity around my way, that's a tell-tale sign that it's coming soon.
Problem is.... I do have a got damned 9 to 5. I don't exactly get to sit at home during the day waiting to see techs scramble around and about.  |

I've seen some verizon activity in my area, but so far nothing fios related. Did you happen to ask for an eta for the Bronx. |
|
| I did, but the lady didn't know. |

| reply to Network Guy
Well, I haven't seen any deployment activity in my area of The Bronx (Throgs Neck). Therefore, I doubt we'll be able to get it before 2006. |
|
| I'm on Castle Hill. I haven't seen anything happening that I could tell. |

a few months ago maybe december i saw like 9 vz trucks by a # 2 train track on white plains road they were working underground, prolly not FiOS but hey never know |
|
| They have to do everything underground in that area, so it could have been anything. |
|
| Hey, pplz, dont loose hope. Verizon will get to NYC sometime. They already started in Queens and Staten Island is up and running! |

If you see Vz techs working in the street don't guess, don't wonder, ASK them: "Are you guys laying fiber, by any chance?" Then report back here

| I'd imagine that wiring the BX would start close to Westchester, where they've already have an established network, and spread south from there.
The Country Club/Throgs Neck area may be one of the first parts of the BX, since the wiring there is above ground, and VZ seems to want to install FIOS above ground at this point.
Note: I have no facts to support any guess in this post. |

I would think that the Bronx would be an ideal place to lay fiber.It's on the mainland.They have many conduites in which to deploy the lines.Heck if I were Verizon, I'd use the even the transit lines to lay that fiber! |

| reply to Network Guy
We're all saying The Bronx would be and Ideal place to lay Fiber, it's prob because we all live in The Bronx. I'm thinking that by the end year we'll know for sure. |

in nyc staten island is the ideal place that's why it started construction first and will be live by end spring early summer |
