JBN3, and All WOULD IT BE CRAZY TO SEE THIS AS A THREAT TO DELL SOME DAY? (Eliminates a need for PC)

C-Phone Corporation (Nasdaq: CFON - news) announced 13 May the
introduction of C-Phone ITV, a TV set-top device that provides Internet access using a television and a regular analog phone line.
C-Phone ITV is an embedded system Internet browser capable of connecting to any Internet Service Provider by a dial-up connection. It is completely self contained and does not require a personal computer. Simple connections to any television set and access to an analog phone line are all that are required.

A wireless, infrared,
ergonomically-designed keyboard, which also functions as a universal
remote control, comes standard with the unit. C-Phone ITV allows the
user to navigate and explore the Internet, send and receive e-mail,
gather information and shop electronically all by way of the TV set.

PS There is a CFON SI thread with quite a bit of info. Stock way down.

Bachman, thanks for your research which indicates that Najib's post was probably inaccurate and meatless (something we have known about Najib for a LONG time now).

Maybe I was right, or do you still think Najib's posts have more "meat" than mine?
