Customers who have it know it. Ask any one of them. Fiber to the house (Verizon) vs. Fiber in your central offices (cable companies) is NOT the same thing! Competition is GREAT for consumers. I think Cableguy should go work at Verizon! :) FiOS rocks. Customers who have it know it. Ask any one of them.

Verizon's $70 per bundle will easily put them over the 20 year ROI. The Cable technology to compete with FiOS is ready. It will also be deployed on their existing infrastructure unlike FiOS. FiOS is just a buzz word to compete. Don't buy in on the hype! FiOS has always been a viable competitor to cable but the amount of capital Verizon will have to spend will be a 15 – 20 year ROI.
