In Houston, if you subscribe to U.S. Videotel (Minitel in the States,
essentially, but with no "Rose" services and severe restriction of
users) you get a terminal for "free".  Base cost is $14.95/mo.  I
cancelled several months ago, and they still haven't asked for their
cheesey Minitel terminal ... :-) (This is the really old, non-anything
else, V.23 only terminal.)
