Watch http://www.pmview.com/ for details ********************************************************************* Source: Dan Porter (porter@innoval.com) Moderator: Trevor Smith (trevor@haligonian.com) ------------------------------------------------------- AFST Inc, has joined in a business partnership arrangement with National DialUp Services and InnoVal Systems Solutions, to provide a low-cost nationwide ISP service for OS/2 users. ISP800, a private brand ISP for corporate customers, is inaugurating service for consumers on January 3, 2000. Extra special prices are available for any OS/2 user who pre-registers for the service by December 30, 1999. In addition, three subscribers will be selected, at random, from the first 100 OS/2 users who signup. These three subscribers will receive free ISP service for one year until December 31, 2000. Highlights of ISP800 service include: Your choice of - Unlimited 56K access through an 800 dialup number or unlimited service using a local dialup number. - A high performance and high capacity POP3 email mailbox - SMTP outbound email - Toll free 24/7 technical support - Very low cost for OS/2 users. ISP800 may also be used with Linux, Mac, and Windows95/98 client platforms. - No signup fees. You may cancel the service at the end of any month. Anyone who travels, uses the Internet from more than one permanent location, or lives in an area not supported by a local access number, is encouraged to use the 800 number. Performance on the 800 number is equal to that of local access numbers since all connections are automatically and instantly re-directed through a close-proximity modem. Access with the 800 number is available anywhere in the United States where a dial tone is available. THERE IS NEVER AN ADDITIONAL FEE FOR USING THE 800 NUMBER TO ACCESS ISP800. Airfone (in plane service) and some hotels do charge access fees when you dial an 800 number. ISP800 Prices: Regular service: $19.95 For all OS/2 Users: $15.95 *** *** Anyone who pre-registers for the service by December 30, 1999, will receive the first year of service for only $11.95 per month. You must be an OS/2 user to pre-register at this price. Your pre-registration must be received by 5:00pm on 12/30/99. Additional email accounts are $3.95 per month. Limit is four additional email accounts. Please note: There is no direct USENET newsgroup access at this time. If enough OS/2 users subscribe and there is sufficient interest, ISP800 will add newsgroup access for OS/2 users. Deja (dejanews) and other web-based newsgroup services may be used in lieu of standard USENET. For additional information, and to signup for ISP800, please visit http://isp800.com/os2.
