I got the FIOS internet last year. I had Direct TV because of 911 (used to get good TV for free). We just got the go ahead for the TV service so now my phone/interent/TV are on the same system. It is awesome. But possiblly could lead to lots of cables running all over your house. It does take a long time to connect and honestly I can't see how Verizon is running a profit on this service yet.
