When they become widely available, I'm pretty sure Lauren will let us all know. It will have to be "buy", not "build", because there is a fair bit of proprietary technology involved. (It's also a bit complicated for a do-it-yourself project; this is not a low-quality low-baud-rate system, and things like cable TV systems can mangle signals pretty badly.) In fact, it may end up being "rent" rather than "buy", since there will be real on-going expenses involved. -- Usenet(n): AT&T scheme to earn revenue from otherwise-unused Henry Spencer @ U of Toronto Zoology late-night phone capacity. {allegra,ihnp4,decvax,pyramid}!utzoo!henry
