FiOS is awesome. Unfortunately, even with a $20/mo. discount from work, and $10/mo. from Verizon, our bill is $150 incl. tax and we have no premium channels, just expanded HD and 2 HD boxes. 35/35 speed, phone unlimited to Canada and Mexico. We'll have to switch over to cable again.
But technology wise there is no comparison between satellite and fiber.
If I were you, I'd go for that deal....
