FIOS is available in a FEW areas of the city of Boston. I can assure you 
that it is NOT available everywhere; I have checked our phone numbers 
here in Dorchester. And I'm not holding my breath for them to make it 
available here; my neighborhood has never been a high priority for 
companies offering high-tech services.

At least Verizon will probably get around to us eventually, unlike RCN, 
which got a license to do business in Boston, wired a couple of rich 
neighborhoods, and then quit. My feeling is that Mayor Menino should 
have put pressure on them; either you serve ALL of the city, or we take 
away your license to serve any of it. Otherwise we will continue to see 
economic redlining.
