Re: Interesting

I switched June 1. Of couarse I wanted FIOS but I was much more interested in what I'd be getting for my dollar. FIOS offered me faster speeds and more channels than Comcast although only for a few dollars less but thats still more money in my pocket. I called Comcast to see if they would match or beat Verizon's offer and they didn't budge.

Three months later now, I'm getting flyers in my mailbox at least once every week from Comcast offering a realy great deal on tripple play packages. Unfortunately, now that I've experienced FIOS I'm not willing to go back to Comcast which I often experienced pixelation (sp) when watching my favorite programs.

Arlington, VA		 LOL Luckily for me its only about once a week. I just rip them up and toss them. Now im thinking about dropping my TiVo service and checking out Verizon's DVR. Just need to see if it can compete with TiVo.

UGH, I have the same problem with Comcast here in PA. It's especially bad if you have a big screen TV.

Calmo....Calmo..... Fios TV is coming....
