I had a D2D visit me last night, long story short this was the offer :
99.99 Triple Freedom - Premium (20/20 internet is $5 more a month, works for me)
30.00 HBO, Cinemax & Movies package - 71 TOTAL movie channels, including all associated On Demand programming for each.
12.00 - 2 SD set-top boxes
0.00 (for the first year, 20.00 potentially after 1 year) Multi-room HD DVR
~20.00 in taxes
TOTAL - 161.00. That includes my phone as well and the only thing I'd lose would be three-way calling (not a big loss to me). As for TV I'd be getting practically all they have to offer plus all the premium movies and 20/20 internet.
I'm currently paying TWC $160 for 1 HD DVR (non-multi) and 2 extra STB's, with advertised 10/less than 1 internet. Add on my Phone bill ($60) and Long Distance ($10) and I'd essentially be saving $70 if I made the switch.
The only caveats I have are what happens after a year - will they allow me to renew at these rates again? Also I read that their DVR's are less then stellar, even compared to TWC's newer DVR's (I still have my wonderful 8300HD, I'll really be sad to see it go if I switch).
Also, I asked about my mother in law in the side apartment, if she'd be effected and they said no - in fact if I wanted to I could add on TWO MORE BOXES to replace hers and she would pay a whopping $14 for her programming, which would be our programming. I told him how could this be, isn't her apartment considered another dwelling and they said it wouldn't matter with the TV service. Can this be right?

Not that I have FIOS as an option yetI want to keep informed so when it finally lands in my neighborhood, after I jump for joy, I can hit the ground running.
Thanks, but I prefer Andy's more succinct list.
