AOL at arm's length everywhere April 19, 1999, 4:00 a.m. PT America Online's plans to offer services to small gadgets that connect to the Internet, eliminating the need for personal computers, will help the online giant reach more computer-phobic customers and will advance its reach in Europe, according to analysts. The non-PC gadgets, including a phone with a screen, will help AOL tap into a group of technophobes who have kept the PC and Internet revolution at arm's length, analysts agree. Industry experts also note that with these devices, AOL may be able to tap into a European audience that has shunned the behemoth online service but fallen for screen-phone devices. These gadgets have been slow in catching on in the United States. news.com
