Well I finally took the plunge! I found FW via our corporate intranet message board (I am a Microsoft employee) and the great offers that were available for FiOS. I Signed up through Steve at the myfiosguy.com site and was going to go with the double play but the wifey wanted a home phone (we never use it but she felt we would get lonely not getting the telemarketing calls during dinner ((sarcasm)) ) so we went with the all access bundle ($154.99) with a Home Media Recorder and 1 HD box, 1 SD box and 1 Digital Adapter:
$154.99 - All Access bundle $ 19.99 - Home Media Recorder $ 9.99 - HD Box $ 5.99 - SD Box $ 3.99 - DA Box $194.95 + Taxes (months 7-24)
$ 59.98 credit for 3 months (SD+DA Box credit) $180.00 $30 credit for six months $100.00 Visa Gift card from Steve $ 65.97 (Premium Channel credit - $21.99 for 3 months) $ 75.00 Verizon Referral (one of my workmates included me as a referral!) $480.95 Savings with all my credits and discounts ---- PRETTY FLIPPIN AWESOME!
Steve was courteous and helpful in explaining the different programs and equipment.
Thanks again to all my MSFT buddies for turning me on to the site and Steve.
I'm not sure what $154.99 All Access Includes but damn.. that is a expensive monthly plan just for phone/internet/cable. First off, no one really uses the home phone that much and who has the time to watch cable TV 24/7.
So in essence you're paying $2,000-$2,5000 per year just on Internet.
I wouldn't bite on this deal. For me, definitely not a super deal.

Yikes, you guys are brutal. I have the same plan although I am paying less since I am on the old tier but I wanted all the premiums (70 extra channels plus the HD versions) for the 5 kids (id rather have them at home with their friends than out getting into trouble.
