You guys have gotten me thinking. (It may not seem like it when you read the rest of this).

Kiosks + internet + credit card swipers + internet cafes......

Have any of you seen where one could log onto the internet in a public place (like the middle of a mall), check on your e.mail, your portfolio, your plane reservations, etc.....? Seems to me that a group of kiosks providing no more than access to the internet, for whatever purpose, would have a bunch of appeal. The user pays by the minute with a swipe of a card or by depositing cash like a copy machine.

Tell me you haven't seen this in high foot traffic areas, and tell me you like the idea. George

PS: What is the name of that little company that puts copy machines in every convenience store in the universe? We could follow their model.
