If the fee is unavoidable (e.g., Verzion FIOS equipment) then it should be included in the advertised price. As it is, Verizon's tactics are closer to bait & switch. Adding $20 to $25 or more in proprietary equipment - with no opportunity to purchase - is shady. Sure, I can and do choose Comcast intead. But the pricing creates a false sense of price, competition, etc.
