Look on the FiOS guy's face upon seeing the 9500LC, Priceless!

So, you're paying $105 for 20mbps broadband, HD DVR, and a premium channel group?
Man, that's a smokin' deal. 10mbps broadband from the cableco in my locale is about $60/mo all by itself. Is that an introductory rate?

Chip (stefuel) warned me of one odd behavior in FiOS Land... The STBs don't scale. When you switch to a SD channel, the STB drops to 480i or p (which IS selectable, oddly enough.) I can confirm that the HD-DVR STB does this also.
720p from the HD-DVR synced right up on the 9500, but 1080i is just different enough to no sync. I've gotta do a full re-setup anyway.
