Default Shipping Up To Boston

Hi Everyone,

I always love reading the threads and notes from all the people and finding out advice.
I've got a bit of good news to share- last week I finally got my L1B visa approved through my employer, which means I can move over to Boston, MA for the start of September.

I just wanted to ask a few questions if I may:
1) Can any of the team suggest some potential insurers/providers I should look into for health insurance/care?
2) How do I go about gaining a U.S Massachusetts state driving licence, I understand I have to take a test, but does anybody know if this is a lengthy process?
3) Finally, who is generally the best bank to sign-up an account for, I generally hear that Bank of America is the easiest, however can I sign up for the account whilst I am still in the UK, or do I need to wait until I get across the pond?
4) Mobiles, has anybody had any experience of attempting to gain a contract/pay monthly mobile when entering the U.S, even as your credit score is practically zero.

Finally, any of the team living in Boston at the moment, would be great to say hi!

Thanks
