They need a more compelling product

With all the price increases, limited HD channels and endless price increases, deployment alone isn't going to win customers.

I can get FiOS at one of my homes but for the hardware, HSI and programming I get, VZ is far more expensive than Time Warner.

So I'm one of those passed homes, but I'm not subscribing unless they give me a good reason to.

Wait until TWC/RR implements their new caps and pricing models nationwide.

Verizon will hit that goal as long as they don't do something stupid like take up the same business model.

They've already taken the huge price increase model.

TWC was already expensive. At least with Fios, you get the much better speeds with the internet.

Re: They need a more compelling product

I don't. I get 15/2 from TWC cheaper than Verizon and I don't have to use Verizon's crap router (or pull CAT5 to avoid it).

FiOS is overrated. FiOS is okay if all you can get is dial up or slow cable/DSL. But it certainly isn't the end-all-be-all savior of all things data. It's expensive and they're raising prices right and left on both video and data.
