(Off Topic) Good Luck to JeepMattOur good moderator Sashwa gave me permission to start this thread. Our friend and long time poster in the Verizon threads, JeepMatt, is moving to Washington state on April 9. I wanted to say goodbye to him and thank him for all the information he's provided here over the years. He's been a great help to many of us and gave us all many laughs. He left for awhile to go back to Comcast, but came back to Fios because he missed us, and all of Verizon's bugs, haha. Good luck to you Jeep in your new location. I hope everything works out for you. We will miss you very much. These boards won't be the same without you. Who knows, maybe you might even come back to us again one day like you have before. Maybe by then, all the bugs with Quantum will be fixed? |

Well, I hope he doesn't become a Sounders fan. The U have had a tough early season but how could you root for a team on artificial turf???
Best Wishes! |

Wow...good luck out west!
You'll be missed in this forum, for all the reasons that Matcarl noted. The good thing: Washington is so gorgeous you might not need so much TV in your life. |

Awwwwe! Thanks everyone! Blue - maybe I have an order in already for my Dempsey jersey! Bsangs - What a sendoff! It's been a wonderful 8 years adding to one of the best forums on this site. Without each other we'd never have become the loving family we all are. I'm really most excited to finally live within a city (Seattle) and not have to drive to do anything. I grew up on a farm - and lived in the burbs my whole life! LOL. And thank you to Sashwa! This is a tough crew to moderate with all that New York attitude. Best of luck as well to all of you! I already purchased my cable modem to take along with us for our X1 Xfinity install on the 13th. |

... or maybe Frontier FiOS? Not sure where in Washington State it's offered but it is in some areas I think. Good luck Jeep. p.s. Jeep: If you can get Frontier FiOS I'll be joining you when the Southern California Frontier take over happens :-(. |

said by bsangs:Make sure you come back here to bitch about Comcast to us. Hah! The worst part is having to learn a new set of channel #'s. And out there - the Comcast lineup REALLY doesn't make sense. All of the local HD's are in the 100's - and the rest are scattered all over. They never consolidated the lineup like they did here in the East 3 years ago. |

Good luck Jeep! As someone who also lives in Delaware I've often valued your insight more so than others into both Comcast and FIOS. Maybe now that you're leaving those of us in DE in VHO8 will finally get MASN2 in HD |

PJL- Yes, I'll be living in Seattle. Frontier doesn't serve that area. Centurylink is the incumbent. And - I already confirmed I'll have Gigabit fiber from them in my area by Summer. They're a few neighborhoods over building out now. So, it's not all that bad. Comcast will have to do for TV. But we're already scaling back to just 1 STB. We've really started to watch more via Xbox and Apple TV. |

Prism TV could be made available soon out there. I know CenturyLink is in the process of launching it in Denver and Minneapolis.
Prism may have some of the same bandwidth constraints of U-Verse, but they have tons of HD channels. Stuff Bright House doesn't even have. |

I'm not worried about Jeepmatt because we all know once his 2yr contract is up with his provider in Washington he will move back to a FIOS location for the New Customer package Pricing.... JK... Best of luck to ya |
