The Daily Sun lets us subscribe for a year and turn on and off the delivery based on when we are there and does not charge us for the time we don't have the paper delivered. Our year subscription lasts about 3 years based on the delivery we request when at the Villages. The Villages.Net also lets us turn the service on and off (on a monthly basis) as needed so that we can make t-times. We would sign up for internet service in a heart beat if we could do the same with that service. It would seem that with all of the part time residents who own homes in the Villages that this would be available? Boy, would it be nice to go on-line at our home rather than driving the golf cart and sitting outside TooJays to browse the web on the IPAD.

We added an IPad to our unlimited Verizon plan ,only $20 a month because it was the 4th unit on the plan. The speed in Lynnhaven is good. No issue watching video.For TV we use Directv. I connect the IPad to the Directv box via the personnel hotspot and Verizon allows 15 GB a month for the personnel hotspot connection.That allows you to to watch about 15 hours of on demand programs. Directv has a good vacation plan. Two times a year you can put the service on hold,must be 30 days,no more than 180. No fees are charged when on hold.
We are in The Villages for Sept,Oct,Nov,Jan,Feb,March and April.
