Netflix is now launched in the remaining VHOs 4,5,6,7,8,9 as of this morning. 
 
At this time, Netflix is available across the entire Fios footprint for VMS customers only. Legacy set top boxes are not supported. 
 
Channel 838 would also be available for customers by ~2 PM ET when guide data refreshes for customers. If any of you are testing today, you should be able to force the guide data update by rebooting your box. I tested from our TV just now and all works including channel 838 showing up on the Guide after a reboot. 
 
VMS customers can access Netflix via the following launch points: 
 
1) Main Menu->On Demand->Netflix poster
2) Main Menu->Widgets & Apps->Netflix widget
3) Widgets button on the Remote->Netflix widget
4) DIAL casting from Netflix CE App
5) Channel 838 from Remote
6) Channel 838 from Guide 
 
Note that since 838 is a virtual channel, you cannot access it via channel up/down.

I see that Verizon just added Netflix to the FiOS TV Guide (Channel 838).  When will they add Amazon Streaming to the Guide?
