The price is comparable to DSL. As others have said they have not got it in every area yet. I heard that they were not going to do any Cape towns, but that is just a rumor. available in Marshfield, Braintree, Abington, Rockland, Parts of Hanover on the South Shore. I think Wareham as well.
I am getting the employee plan, but Verizon Local , and unlimited domestic long distance for like 30 bucks a month, and another 34 for 15meg computer ain't too shabby. I can't wait for the Video, say bye-bye comcast....

Bill.. what has the big V got against the cape, anyway?.. we barely get a decent phone signal.. lines are antique, and patches on patches.. almost at the level of a string between two dixie cups, as far as signal.. we are overdue Big Time, for a full upgrade of lines.. and service down here... always seem to be on the end of the line, with the big V....

Karl I hope it comes to your area soon. I converted a while back and It is great. I use them for Cable, Land line, Internet and wireless. All on one bill and the service beats the hell out of RCN. Saved a good bit of $ also.
The internet really is fast. TS -- use Firefox, the FIOS is so fast Internet explorer has trouble keeping up. Firefox also has some cool features also.
