From Glrycld@aol.com Thu Jul 8 13:33 MET 1999 From: Glrycld@aol.com Message-ID: Date: Thu, 8 Jul 1999 07:32:59 EDT Subject: Minitel Concept? To: scherer@ensmp.fr As a student doing research for Java, I have come across the mystery about the compatibility with the Minitel system. I see that Java's toolbox is associated with this system, ( in the article, it is not specific enough). My comment about this concept is, in America will it be available and or is it true to say that Europe will not let it be shared with us, Whatever the case may be, if PC's are more the norm over here, why would we worry about the use of a closed system form the French Government. If I am wrong about the articles display of information, ( the article says that they have developed a telephone terminal system application based on the French Minitel concept). Please except my letter as an inquiry of more detailed information or where I'd be able to locate the desired information about the French Minitel concept in America. Thank you Sincerely, David Pell
