Hi Ole,
When I showed your Survivor Email configuration to a co-worker he
roared. Then he sobered up and said he would show it to his daughter
who has a modern calculator that she and her friends have actually
downloaded games to. So apparently it already has an interface.
So this is probably quite do-able with current technology and not
limited to 300 baud connections either.
End
Peace
