Nah, Verizon's real offer with be wirelss+phone+DSL for only $2 a month*.

[fine print]
* $2 a month fee only good for the first four months. Per month fee then rises to $200 a month. Promotional offer only valid if upon signing a 3 year contract. Early termination of the contract would cost $900. Taxes and Fees not included in the per month fee and are expected to run $95 a month.

You forgot the part saying that after you cancel early you have to return the modem and phone then permanently affix a bumper sticker on your car that says 'Satisfied Verizon subscriber'

Or how about "We also reserve the right to charge absolutely lower regional prices toward our competition, and once they realize, we'll raise it to confuse you even more! Best of all, we don't have to honor our pricing tiers anywhere else in the country, because we are Verizon, expect less! Our marketing department spends most of our money on flyers, silly commercials and nazi-colored corporate graphics that really tell you who we are, even if we are the only phone/telco provider for hundreds of miles! "
