Well, i must say that my remark was clearly "european" minded...I agree
that wmmail
is really good looking. To give you an idea, here in France the average
cost is about 0.8$/hour...
so you have it: about 600 $/month for an 24x7 phone-connexion ! Ouhaou !
(*pretty* *pretty* expensive is the good word for this ;-)
The cable (i mean permanent high speed connexion by TV) is about
50$/month...better...but i
think that you're surrounded by commercials there...pretty boring.
