I currently have a home telephone line and DSL which cost me about $48/month (through AT&T). I'm considering cancelling that (when the contract expires) and going with Verizon's broadband service.
The Verizon broadband service runs about $60 per month so it is a higher cost and I lose my home phone but I do travel and often have to pay $11/day at hotels so in most months this would pay for itself.
I'm not sure how the speed compares but it won't be difficult to find out but assuming its comparable, is there any reason I should hold off on making this change?
How reliable is Verizon's broadband service? It requires a two year contract and I'm sure prices will go down in time and free public access is becoming more widely available so the value in the 2nd year may be minimal but right now it would probably be high.

Due to your traveling , I think it would be worth your while. It's much faster than DSL as well. You just have to be on the Verizon network to use it. If you travel somewhere that its not offered you are SOL.

I'm not sure why you are paying as much as you do. I have verizon dsl without a phone line and it only costs me about $24 a month.

Broadband rocks!! It is a lot faster than DSL too!! I use insight $30 a month -- some of them offer broadband phone too for a lot less than conventional (I know comcast does)
