- Wow! Sounds like just the thing! Is there an Internet gateway and
- News access?
-
- There was a post in soc.culture.celtic about Internet access in GB -

- You get mail, news, ftp, etc. for a flat fee per month and no connect
- charge if you live in a "class A city". If you live in a "class B city"
- you get charged an hourly fee.
