I agree with all the comments above and have a few additional comments to make. We were going to keep our cable but add Dish for a different reason altogether....programming. They offered Eastenders. So, take a look at the programming Time Warner offers, Direct TV and Dish offer and decide if there are any must have programs that one of the providers offers. That being said, we couldn't get a satellite as we had too many trees. So we are stuck with cable. I had a satellite in Basel and had plenty of issues with weather related outages...especially when it rained. I did like a lot of the programming capabilities. Now with DVR on the cable, it is the same and I am happy with my cable. I just wish I could get BBC with my Cable provider.

The combo phone, internet and Cable is a good deal and works well. However, we still have to keep a land line for when the cable goes down.
