They are even attaching molding to the condos to run wires...any updates on Fios & if it's worth the switch? I know they will offer everything for ~ $95.00/ month for the 1st year...but that's not much less then I'm paying now for cable. (BTW:, I'm pretty happy with cable.) Any idea how long it takes for them to lay the wires etc?

They started installing here a few months ago as well (townhouses). In anticipation I cancelled Comcast TV, and of course they f'd up and cancelled my internet as well. I was paying $145 for TV and Internet only, and that did not include any premium channels at all, and only one HD box.

Not sure if FiOS is available yet, and I am not very motivated just yet.

How long did it take them to dig and get everything in? Our beautiful community looks like shit!

For the parts that I see on a daily basis, It was less than a month.. But they might still be working in other areas that I don't pass by... I am not sure if it's actually available yet though.. Comcast hasn't filtered my line yet.
