PS: I am writing this in a Starbucks shop in Tauranga, [New Zealand] on my notebook computer using WiFi [802.11b]. It's free for another day because Telecom New Zealand hasn't got their WiFi system fully ready to go yet but they are letting people use it anyway. Yesterday, I was driving around Taupo [another city in NZ] looking for an internet connection. I don't have Telecom's 1xEV-DO because it's so expensive. It seemed odd to be looking for cyberspace when it's filling the aether, passing right through my helpless brain. I felt deaf, dumb and blind and living in the stone age. In a few years, being without cyberspace everywhere will be like being dead, dumb and blind. People think nothing much of it now, [unless they really want to get online for some reason]. But they will. The charges are too high at present for normal people to use it. But the production cost is low and everyone will be able to use it. Some competition will sort it out. Mqurice
