Does anyone have the Verizon FiOS service? If you do, how do you like it?

Its not available yet here in NYC, since Cablevision and Time Warner have a contract with the city, and they don't want Verizon to offer the service since it will open up competition.

I want to try FiOS TV, and internet.

I have heard that they are working on it here in NJ. I guess it is not anywhere near me or I would have heard about it more.

I think where Cablevision is, Verizon can't touch yet, since these monopoly cable companies are trying to block Verizon since they find them as a threat. Plus the city has to approve Verizon coming in.

What do you mean by 12 mb? 12 mbps? All of the kb, kbs, kbps, and mbps confuse me. Sorry.
