I'm saving $60 a month over what I was paying before on the same services and I get a better net connection and more tv channels.  The small lineup of true HD is disappointing but I think it's only a matter of time before they catch up - they certainly have the bandwidth for it.  If you can get it in your neighborhood go for it.  I'm paying $200 a month for phone, internet and 6 boxes one of which is the home media station.  If you just needed one or two boxes this would cost you probably $50 less.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Mjolnier]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 7th 2008 11:19AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Verizon running low on FiOS TV HD boxes?]]></title><link>http://hd.engadget.com/2008/02/05/verizon-running-low-on-fios-tv-hd-boxes/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://hd.engadget.com/2008/02/05/verizon-running-low-on-fios-tv-hd-boxes/</guid><description><![CDATA[I just signed up with Verizon Fios and was told I couldn't get my HD DVR box until mid March.  It made me hesitate, but I still pulled the trigger.   I'll save around $80 with Verizon's bundled service vs. Dish Network.  I'll miss my SDTV Dish DVR, but Verizon's HDTV will be nice (when it finally arrives).]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[BTD Greg]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 12th 2008 2:53PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Verizon running low on FiOS TV HD boxes?]]></title><link>http://hd.engadget.com/2008/02/05/verizon-running-low-on-fios-tv-hd-boxes/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://hd.engadget.com/2008/02/05/verizon-running-low-on-fios-tv-hd-boxes/</guid><description><![CDATA[I've been a FIOS TV customer for a year and wanted to upgrade one of my existing standard def STBs to a HD STB.

While the installer was at my house, I called Customer Services and they told me that HD boxes are now available, but of course my installer didn't have one.  How do I get one?  No one at Verizon has been helpful.  Apparently I can go to a store with my standard box and exchange it for a new HD box.  But, the Customer Service Reps can't guarantee that the store will give me one.  Does anyone know how I can get an HD box?]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[New NJ Customer]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mar 28th 2008 11:34PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Verizon running low on FiOS TV HD boxes?]]></title><link>http://hd.engadget.com/2008/02/05/verizon-running-low-on-fios-tv-hd-boxes/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://hd.engadget.com/2008/02/05/verizon-running-low-on-fios-tv-hd-boxes/</guid><description><![CDATA[Phil C,<br><br>Any luck on getting that new HD box?  No one at Verizon Customer Service is being helpful.  At this point I don't know why I switched from Cablevision.

Didn't need an HD then...if only I had known!!  Just got off the phone with customer service.  She more or less confirmed New NJ Customer, saying there were a few in stock, but they couldn't be given out (must be for new customers). She's saying April, but I was previously told March, so we'll see.  Funny, she offered to send an SD DVR for no additional charge, but when I told her I had one already, she didn't offer to adjust the charge.  If they are not in by end of April, I'm going to cancel and demand I don't get charged the cancellation fee. ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Fred]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mar 28th 2008 9:48AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Verizon running low on FiOS TV HD boxes?]]></title><link>http://hd.engadget.com/2008/02/05/verizon-running-low-on-fios-tv-hd-boxes/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://hd.engadget.com/2008/02/05/verizon-running-low-on-fios-tv-hd-boxes/</guid><description><![CDATA[I have had Fios for over a month.  SD boxes where the only choice when I ordered since then I have been put on a "list" for an HD box.  I emailed them and they did not reply.  I went to a verizon outlet the were somewhat rude and then said I should have come last week, that they had some hd boxes then.  I switched from cablevision who was always good to me and provided a fine HD.  I am starting to regret my change as I have not been given any definitive answers from verizon and watching standard tv pales in comparison to hd and makes me feel I am being jipped on my viewing experience everytime.  ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Christopher A]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Apr 21st 2008 10:47AM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
