> Also apparently they've put in a really ugly "Terms of Sale".
Particularly ugly - if you don't use their $21.95 month net access
service for their required period of time, they'll charge you $499.
If they don't have your credit card number, they'll send you a bill.
See
https://secure.netpliance.com/store/terms_sale.asp
(Why you need a security-enabled browser to look at their terms
and conditions, I don't know. But at the bottom of that page they
encourage you to e-mail them with the name and address of anyone who
has violated their policies by doing as much as disassembling
or modifying the device.)
Makes $99 sound like not so much of a bargain anymore, huh?
