Good questions. There was no information in the communication
stating required hardware. It looks like they may provide you a box that
"just" plugs into your LAN. The presentation was fairly high-level, not
much nitty gritty. AND it was in Word format. Kinda makes me suspect
Windows drivers are lurking along the way....
Frankly, I don't have enough interest at this point to follow up on those
questions. I was stopped by the $3700 initial cash outlay plus monthly
$700 that they quoted. NOT something for me at this point - nor for the
small Cybercafe operator either I would suppose.
