June 18, 200818 yr Yay! Looking forward to my 15/2 package being bumped up to 20/5 sometime next week.
June 18, 200818 yr I wish they'd run lines out to my house. I so hate having no choice but comcast...
June 18, 200818 yr I wish my family would get it. I'm not worried about download speed, I need upload speed. Its absolutely abysmal with Comcast. I had to quit Mozy because of it. Sumbitches.
June 18, 200818 yr Author I know Comcast has a 16/2 service, but it might only be available in areas where they have to compete with FiOS
June 18, 200818 yr Yay! Looking forward to my 15/2 package being bumped up to 20/5 sometime next week. Wow. That is great news for you. Thanks for the info
June 18, 200818 yr whoo hoo! I have the same package, now I should find out what to do with all the band width
June 18, 200818 yr I have the 5/2 package, which is auto bumped to 10/2 in NY. I really want the 20/5 package though.
June 18, 200818 yr I wish my family would get it. I'm not worried about download speed, I need upload speed. Its absolutely abysmal with Comcast. I had to quit Mozy because of it. Sumbitches.This is what we currently have, before the shakeup:5/2 $42.99 currently have (slowest) 15/2 $74.95 w/ 2 yr bundled commitment 15/15 $84.95 w/ 2 yr bundled commitment 30/15 $155.00 no bundled commitment deal...I have a feeling it will become something like:10/2 $42.99+ currently have (slowest) 20/5 $74.95+ w/ 2 yr bundled commitment 20/20 $84.95+ w/ 2 yr bundled commitment 50/20 $155.00+ no bundled commitment dealI'm tempted to take it up to 20/20, but there's no way I'm paying for 50/20. Heck, even if I don't do anything, I should get throttled down to half as bad as previously. That's still pretty good.
June 18, 200818 yr Yay! Looking forward to my 15/2 package being bumped up to 20/5 sometime next week. Sigh. Still waiting, I know some Verizon managers who told me about this four years ago and an announcement seven months ago that it was coming to the LA area, yeah right.

NY already gets 10/2 for the slowest package, 15/2 is $52.99. 50/20 is $84.99 or something.
June 18, 200818 yr Author but there's no way I'm paying for 50/20. Heck, even if I don't do anything, I should get throttled down to half as bad as previously. That's still pretty good. The 50/20 plan will be $89.95 in VA/NY and $130-$140 everywhere else.
June 18, 200818 yr The 50/20 plan will be $89.95 in VA/NY and $130-$140 everywhere else.Did you see where it was already $155 for me? There's no way they're lowering it for me.
June 18, 200818 yr Aardvark, how old are you? 25. Born 12/30/82. And yes, I know I'm a mooch for still living at home. But it does allow for some nice discretionary income for Amazon edit: not sure what speed internet we have. Slow and slower would be an accurate description.
June 18, 200818 yr Dude, 25, get out the house man! I wont say anyhting cause I'll be moving out when I am 25. Gotta wait for the woman to gradiate so I can afford that mansion and a yacht. Or so I can afford my student loan payments and a mortgage payment. Rent is
June 18, 200818 yr I moved out at 16. I guess I could move out now, but that would mean no savings. I figure: I knwo my g/f (fiance in about 4 months) and I will be living together when she finishes her masters next may. I don't know where she is working yet. So I might as well wait so we can pick a place together. That leaves me with a year to kill to either a) get my own place, or save half my pay. Saving seems to make sense to me.

My girlfriend's finishing up her Master's next year and depending on where she works is where we'll live. I still live at home, but I pay my parents a decent amount for rent.
