Steve If I were Case & Co (and I'm sure I'm not saying anything they don't already know), I'd drop monthly subscriptions completely, take the fee from the local phone companies and put resources into developing local content to compete on something other than price. After all, AOL knows as well as anyone that the initial stages of opening an area to the Internet are about market share. Well put, now lets take into consideration the wireless network that is upon us in ISP connectivity. A small dish or antenna from a hand held device will deliver AOL at a small direct charge from AOL thus cutting out the Europe wirelines and making an Internet connection in Europe much cheaper then is now possible. No copper wire will be involved as well as no PCs as we know them. AOL will be accessible from any where any time using a small device to access email and other web features. Using the above to stimulate your imagination how will the so called $60 a month free Dell ISP connections hold up IYO? Vendit
