Local access providers appeal to IInternet users because they can use a local telephone number to access the net thereby avoiding long distance telephone charges. Without local access, phone charges can become quite costly for the average user who spends 6.6 hours a week surfing the web. As time spent on the Internet increases because of slow modems and increasing use of graphics and multimedia on web pages, more and more people are confronted with the dilemma of tying up their phone lines while browsing the web on their computers. Additionally, local access is still not available for many people living outside metropolitan areas. Wireless Internet access helps solve all of these dilemmas.
Wireless access avoids tying up phone lines and large toll charges.
Also, T-NET Internet Access can provide access at higher speeds. T-NET does this by using a specially modified RTU which can receive digital data inserted in the TV broadcast signal and relaying it to the subscribers computer. This type of setup will make for better route management and inventory and sales maintenance which in turn will result in better sales. The need to access and send information has become so important, the next step is to extend interaction wherever we are, and this can be accomplished with kiosks. The modern kiosk might be visualized as an enlarged telephone booth for phone calls, fax, accessing the Internet, purchasing tickets, obtaining transportation schedules, buying drinks or food, seeking suggestions for restaurants, etc.
