Verizon taking FiOS orders in Mar Vista, California
Despite Verizon's continued silence on the matter, FiOS has actually landed in Mar Vista, California. Earlier this year, clues were falling in place for the service to arrive, and according to a local, things are finally good to go. As the story goes, a Verizon representative actually stopped by tipster Jeff's house in order to persuade him to sign up for FiOS TV, high-speed internet and digital phone. He (the rep, that is) noted that installation appointments were being setup for next week, so we suspect we'll get the official word soon enough. At least you've got a few days to mull it over, right?[Thanks, Jeff]
Verizon gearing up for FiOS TV launch in Mar Vista, California?
Take this one for what it's worth, but a resident in Mar Vista, California (just outside of Santa Monica) recently received quite the curious flier from Verizon. Granted, we're not talking Comcast bizarre or anything, but a note left outside of his door informed him that his trees may need to be trimmed in order for fiber optic cabling to be ran. When the process was complete, he was told he could expect "clearer phone calls, faster internet and TV service from Verizon." We aren't betting the farm on this one just yet, but considering the feverish pace at which the company is expanding its FiOS services, we wouldn't be surprised one bit to hear something official in the not-too-distant future.[Thanks, Jeff]
