Even though the reports on DSLR show that FiOS deployments have come to a halt, I am seeing signs that a FiOS deployment may be in the cards where I am at in Springfield, MA. I have been seeing a lot of Verizon contractors pulling fiber optic cables in my area.
Just today I was driving into Ludlow and there were contractors pulling cables by the bridge. And there is a VZ CO a couple of blocks to the south (Indian Orchard exchange) where the Telco contractors were working. The IO exchange serves mostly residential areas but also serves several large shopping districts. The small CO exchange only has one prefix and that is 413-543-xxxx.
I've also seen VZ contractors working in the downtown area.

I've experienced ImOn (when they were McLeod USA), Mediacom, Comcast, and Time Warner and I currently have DirecTV. They are much better than broadcast TV.
I have not and will not cut the cord.
