Comcast is the only option that I am aware of other than satellite (Direct TV or Dish Network). I have Comcast for phone and Internet and Direct TV for TV service. I know that Verizon offers DSL but I don't think it's a fast a Comcast, from what I understand.

We have Comcast cable, internet, and phone. You can also use Embarq for phone and internet.

Comcast for the moment. However, Verizon is all over laying fiber optic lines to pick up on the cable business that comcast is losing.

However, I'm North of that area, have Dishtv, had Directv...wouldn't trade it for comcast at all...more channels and the receptions better.

WE do, however, lose signal sometimes in summer when it storms...it's minor...no big issues.
