Um...
I consorted with the devil^W^Wa telco this evening.
As of Feb. 21, I'll have Verizon service in the house for the first time in years. FiOS, even. It'll be cheaper than Cox for the same level of service, considerably faster, and it'll roll my VZW service in with my FiOS, FiOS TV, and land line.
I feel so dirty.
They are giving me a free wireless router (shit I wouldn't let my dog, if I had one, route through), and a free 19" HDTV, which I'm also sure is bottom end crap. I don't really care about the hardware. I'd like the symmetrical 15/15 FiOS service, but it wasn't worth an extra $40/mo. to me. 15/2 should be perfectly livable. I don't do P2P, so outgoing is email, occasional picture uploads, and MMORPGs. Oh yes...and the occasional VPN tunnel to work, but seeing as how the office only has a T1, 2mb is still more than I need.
