I've been doing the Comcast/Xfinity bundle on my Internet/TV/Phone for a little over 2 years now and satisfied with their service. In that time there has only been 1 outage, and it was planned and anticipated while they were upgrading their equipment. I do read a lot of negative comments about Comcast on the 'net, but they seem to be doing a pretty good job in my area.

We have Comcast - no performance complaints but they charge way too much for it.

For my I-phone and Blackberry I have Verizons unlimited data plan. At the house I have Bright House Roadrunner for my pos laptop. My computer is so antiquated I stopped using it out of boredom and frustration. So you could say that currently I pay for something I don't use.

Mine's really slow compared to everyone else, but it's fast enough to stream video. Plus I had dial up for a long time, so I'm still really thankful for DSL.
Here are the numbers:

46 ms ping, 3.92 Mbps download, 0.74 Mbps upload
