When are we going to hear something new?

Is this article supposed to be news?

Verizon, Verizon, Verizon..........all i hear is that verizon is not doing much, so many articles about verizon upgrading the service and yet they don't actually do anything.

why not save us the time until verizon makes something official for a change and then tell us about it.

What in God's name are you complaining about?

This is the first website on the Internet to report Verizon customers are getting higher DSL speeds this week, and you're whining about them (and the users) breaking a story?

Verizon gets slammed (and rightly so) because they over-emphasize fiber deployments for regulatory effect.

While I agree with the first part of your post, I disagree with the latter. It isn't the end of 2004 yet. How do you know Verizon won't reach 4,000,000 people? You should really go read up on the deployment. Verizon has installed fiber lines in many different areas, it's just waiting to be turned on.

Maybe you should read the news about fiber and how it is deployed in keller,tx so they did something there . you might also wanna read the forums about how people already got the upgrade so before you post you should read the oh so many articles about verizon

no

Considering freedom is 50 bucks a month(unlimted local and long distance) it's still a rip. That would make it 90 bucks a month for phone and dsl. No thanks.

If you consider your regular phone bill is 30 a month, an extra 20 does not offset the discount. So it's a big profit either way. Real smart...

Re: When are we going to hear something new?

Ive been reading for the past six months about Verizon promising 3mbs service......save me the news from the last six months and verizon costumers who have been waiting all this time.

it's still not available every where......good piece of news?....Bull

It's just like waiting for Bush to be out of office and then when elections come in one split second he mite still be there after.......call me when the service is offered in more than one area please!

Re: When are we going to hear something new?

This sounds like another COX thing ,maybe verizon wasn't finished upgrading you got to give it time just like how everyone has to give fiber time.And everyone in CA usually just goes with a verizon reseller for it.East coast was probably most likely to get the upgrade first

Re: How aout Freedom users?

Does Verizon offer a freedom bundle with just Local Service, Cell and DSL?

If so, anybody have a clue as to the price?

There is a line of people in PA that have more of a right to cry than you in CA. It seems that nobody can be pleased with anything.

I am jealous of the people with the fiber in Keller and anywhere else that have it running. I am jealous of the people with RR Premium (It isn't offered here). And I am joining the people with Verizon 3/768 tomorrow when the new modem comes. I have my fingers crossed that I get the speed that is promised.:D

See ^^ no tears, just envy.
