Uploading is FREE in GEnie in ALL RoundTables. There is a rumor that 9600
access will begin next year.  At least for major cities.  No word on rates
for 9600 though.

Star*Services include over 100 areas including mail, mall, Easy Sabre
(American Airlines flight reservation), lots of news and more.  All of the
computer related roundtables (Mac, FreeSoft, Mac Pro,,etc.) are $6/hr.  Star
Services areas are $4.95/month for unlimited use on non-prime time.
