Well, there are two issues here: the first is the general limitations
of AOL on a Zoomer. The second is that what is offered doesn't work.
I would assume the timeframe for fixing the first problem is fairly
long, requiring new software for the Zoomer, perhaps. I would hope that the
timeframe for the second problem is very short, since even the simplest things
are working. (Latest fun thing: check out the 9600 baud access codes from your
Zoomer!)
Any word on when those problems (# 2) will be fixed?
