Hi, Suz; One of the mgrs here has a WebTV account for his wife, who is not computer literate. She Loves It. He uses it sometimes and says "it's not bad." My experience w/output leaves much to be desired, though. The TV wasn't meant to present *words* to be read, ya know? Downside: you're stuck w/this supplier -- ie, there's no competition (at least I don't think there is) like there is among ISPs. > Kathy E.
