    Western New York, FiOS. FiOS, western New York. That's right -- not even two full months after Verizon's FiOS TV took New York City by storm, the service has officially gone live in the western park of the state. We've known this was coming for quite some time, but it feels oh-so-good to know that some 60,000 households in the greater Buffalo area can now phone up Verizon and order up its fiber-based TV programming, high-speed internet and digital phone services. Among the first communities to get served are parts of Amherst, Hamburg, Orchard Park and Tonawanda; expect additional communities in the region to get gifted "within the next few weeks." Any western New Yorkers mulling the switch?

    We have absolutely no qualms with lots of New York locales getting access to FiOS TV, but Verizon sure has been shunning the rest of the country here of late while giving even more Empire State dwellers something to cheer about. Next in line is Orchard Park, which marks the second locale in Western New York (and in Erie County) to get gifted with FiOS TV in the last week. Of course, the New York State Public Service Commission still has to give the final (and all-important) thumbs-up, but we'd wager that residents of the area can look forward to another choice in providers within just a few months.
