Looks like they just snagged this from Comcast. Check out the internet wayback machine for the Comcast Jordan's IMAX theater:

Yeah, it was the Comcast IMAX theater until about a year ago. This store is only a couple exits down the highway from my office. I'll go check it out and post some pics if anyone is interested.
this is off topic but is anyone elses http://www.highdefdigest.com down? I havent been able to get it or the forums on there to load for almost two days.
^ Works fine for me. How bout' some hd channels already.
ya like las vegas
Jordans Dawt com .. I love the guys Boston accent in the commercials .. out in western mass we don't have one
there's a lot more country out there beyond the Northeast.
Not really.
It'd be nice if Verizon actually spent some money rolling FIOS out to some of Boston's suburbs instead of all this advertising. I live 10 minutes T ride from downtown Boston and there's still no FIOS in my neighborhood.
Yeah, one of my friends lives about 1/2 of a mile away and has Fios, but I can't get it in my townhouse complex (same town).
I'll agree with the consensus and say Verizon doesn't need to spend much on marketing. Just put a billboard a quarter of a mile away from every lying Comcast billboard that reads: "Hey, we're not Comcast." Enough said.
I can't care about major rollout, because I already have FioS. I will say this though, if Verizon did a major push, you would have to believe that TWC and Comcast would be relegated to AOL level.
I would love to see them upgrade their wireless router to the N grade. You tout high speeds, but push it on b/g technology? Ugh.
Even though FiOS is well established in New England already, I think it's more BECAUSE of that fact that Jordan's decided to do this. After all, they can't easily recommend a service to their customers unless it's more likely to be available in most areas.
Verizon doesn't need to advertise, they need to mobilize! Still waiting for FiOS in Seattle, and I know I'm not the only one.
even here in Massachusetts they are not 100% available, I keep checking their website to see if they are available in my area and they still dont offer it. And their DSL service is really sucking ass, i keeps knocking my connection, if Fios doesn't make it here quick i think i'm gonna start giving comcast a look.
Don't underestimate the power of BRK, you'll soon have FiOS with every can of Coke.
