Verizon brings more FiOS goodness to Cali'

California residents: thinking about "Ditching the Dish?" Verizon's massive FiOS plans for your state just might get the magic of fiber optics to your house sooner than you thought. As of today, the service is now available to an additional 129,000 homes in 12 cities bringing the total available statewide to 350,000. Even if your front yard hasn't been torn up lately to lay new lines, that doesn't mean crews won't be coming to your home as their plans include reaching 150,000 more potential subscribers by year end. With cable being so 1990'ish and satellite throwing back memories of 2001, fiber optic is, well, cool like 2011. Low prices, high speed 'net access, widgets, and 25+ HD stations - nice.
