Default Choosing New Services - Collier

We purchased a home in Collier and have to choose a Internet and TV and maybe Phone service, we move in the end of January.

I understand there are three vendors that will provide TV and Internet and phone, Century Telephone, Comcast, and Bright House and then of course, TV from Directv and Dish.

My hope is that the vendor will complete the wiring in the Leviton box so we will have a working LAN.

The wife is a TV 'junkie', and I'm an 'internet' junkie.

My question which vendor or combination of vendors will give the most advanced services. While price is a concern, it is not a limiting factor. Speed, TV channels, TV picture quality, and DVR functionality come first.
We are leaving a FIOS home and have become somewhat "spoiled".

Any and all suggestions are welcomed and any contacts with the local PC club that has information on hard wired LANs would be appreciated.

We are looking forward to joining the fun in the Villages.

BTW, I also posted this question in the Computer Forum, sorry for the double post.
