 Well - I joined AOL the other night using my Zoomer. I'm getting very
frustrated, though - I know my way around the Internet like the back
of my hand but am totally lost on AOL - that or something is very wrong
with my configuration. I keep hearing about various files and notebooks
available for download but can't find them anywhere. Can this not be
done with the Zoomer? I also see mention of a message base of Zoomer
owners - I can't find this either. To further piss me off - EVERY call
to the AOL 800 number in the last 18 hours has been busy - never once
have I gotten to speak to someone. Their long-distance number warned
of a 15-minute or more hold delay to speak with someone - I hung up
after 20. 

 I suppose I can accept it if some of the features mentioned above are for
PC only - I just wish that had been clarified by AOL if this is the case.
If not - somebody PLEASE tell me what I'm doing wrong or overlooking.

 Oh - one other thing - on the main menu, the Zoomer Beta Test icon above
the top news story icon doesn't work - I get "keyword 189" not valid.

 - Trying to keep from becoming discouraged
