Ordered VZ FIOS 10/1/2009 and scheduled an install on 10/9/2009. Install took about 2 hours total.
I received the HD Extreme package, 25/15Mbps internet, and phone for about $145/month, with a few credits ($150 back, 3 months HBO/Cinemax).
I ordered from www.myfiosguy.com (if you're interested in splitting a referral package, PM me). I did a lot of my own due diligence before calling myfiosguy, but the main guy there (Steve) explained a lot of the fine detail, including the real costs of service, such as DVR costs, etc.
Overall, service has been great, and FIOS speeds are fast. Main reason for switchiing from Comcast was we had a 2 month period where my signal from the street was extremely low, and I wasn't receiving 90% of the channels. Took weeks of calling only to constantly say "we've referred it to construction, it will be repaired".
So far so good with VZ.
