Broadband Internet: Frontier DSL. I had RoadRunner for five years, but it just got worse every year. I switched to DSL a few months ago, and I'm surprised at how much better it is. Frontier has cleaned up their act in the last few years, and RoadRunner has never been as good as it was during its first few years in Roch.
Cell Phone: Verizon, unfortunately. Sprint's coverage fades outside of cities. The Cingular people I talk with are always breaking up. T Mobile is worse. The downside of Verizion is the limited phone selection and their desire to charge a lot extra for bandwidth that isn't used for voice calls.
Residential Phone: Frontier - I still can't see disconnecting my land line, and how could you use Time Warner when their service goes off whenever the power does?
TV: Dish Network. Time Warner's DVR (tivo) is a miserable device, and their "digital" cable is a bit clearer but still not nearly as good as Dish. Dish makes their own DVRs and they're pretty decent. The reception on Dish is noticeably better than Time Warner's cable, and Dish is cheaper. The downside is that you're at the mercy of the installer, but there are some good ones out there.
