Verizon will happily give you business-class FiOS data service at a  
residence as well (I know, because I have it). But amusingly, they're  
not able to run it over the same fiber as residential FiOS TV, which  
they didn't even realize when they came out to hook me up for TV when  
it was first available (data service was available several months  
ahead of TV). The solution? I have two fibers to my house.
