I have been using FIOS at home for several months now, and it has been the best internet service I have ever had. I opted for the 20mbs down, 5mbp up plan because it was only $10 more a month. Every time I run the speedtest it is always pegged right at the cap amount, no dips or slows.

Today over on Ars Technica I just read that Verizon has increased the speeds of the service! When I get a chance to check it I should now have 25mbs down and 15mbs up!!!

The upload rate is huge for me, because I am starting to use services like DropBox much more frequently. Also suddenly online backup services like Carbonite (thanks Leo twit.tv) seem much more useful.

Anyway, I am excited to get back home and try it out.

UPDATE: They are not quite as awesome, they are just updating their new plans to these speeds. So it will cost more to get 15Mbs up, and not just a blanket upgrade for everyone like I first expected. Still great but I will have to think about it.
