I’m reading about Verizon FiOS and I’m just blown away by everything it does. It reminds me of something you see in the movies, that the rich, billionaire tech inventor has in his home. It truly gives you the ultimate in flexibility. These are just some of the features that go above and beyond imagination!
1.  I remember when you had to watch a tv show when it aired, or else you would miss it. Well, those days are long gone. We’ve had a DVR for years, since they first came out, and I thought that gave me flexibility. The Verizon FiOS gives you even more. Not only the flexibility as far as when to watch, but also, where to watch. You might have the new technology that lets you watch a recorded show in any room in your house – now with Verizon FiOS you can even watch it on your phone! Not a downloaded episode from last year, you can watch the show you recorded this morning. Yikes.
2. Tweet-y, Tweet, Tweet. Now, are you ready for this? Now, you can tweet from your television! As you watch a program, you can tweet. Too cool. 140 characters are definitely not enough to describe how amazing Verizon FiOS is! Well, guess what? You can Facebook, too!
3. Would you rather watch your daughter’s soccer game than the Stranger Wives or whatever reality show is the latest rage? I know I would! With Verizon FiOS Media Manager, you can access and play your own videos, stream photos and more.
4. Do you watch DVDs during a storm because you lose the signal on your satellite TV? We do :( That doesn’t happen with Verizon FiOS…
- Verizon’s advanced fiber optic technology lets you watch HDTV with less interruptions, pixelation, or weather interference.
- FiOS is more weather resistant and more durable than the copper phone lines or coaxial cable .
5. Verizon WiFi is included with the internet package. You can access the internet from the coffee shop, in the airport, hotels, bookstores and more with your laptop.
Those are the top five things I feel would appeal most to our family. Check out the features of Verizon FiOS for yourself, and see how your family would use it. It is truly amazing with so many features that I have never heard of before. It integrates the many technology toys in our lives and increases the functionality of them exponentially.
And if all those features make your head buzz and you’re worried about how you’re going to figure all that out? The Verizon support is available 24/7 to help you get the most out of your system.
I have to admit there is a #6… There is an app that lets you control things in your house like your lights, heat, door locks. I didn’t include it above, because honestly, I don’t understand it, but it sounds very cool!! I’m going to find out more about it – this sounds awesome, especially if you have children and are concerned with safety and protecting your home.
