NEW Internet Box
iBOX, the InteliNet Communicator

Cruise the Internet effortlessly, without the bother or expense of a
PC! 

The communicator is a convenient, simple-to-use, cost-effective
alternative to the home PC in satisfying a variety of Internet
services, including audio and video e-mail. 

The iBOX comes fully featured and ready for Internet connection.

The iBOX is ideal for home or office. Connect to InteliNet's Internet
Access Service, using the enclosed 33.6K modem or upgrade to a 56K or
ISDN connection. Features include simple plug-in connection, HTTP
compliance, sending and receiving of e-mail with picture and sound
capability, a versatile CD player for system CD-ROM or music CD, and
full stereo sound capability.

The iBOX provides a economical turn-key solution to accessing a
growing variety of on-line information and interactive services,
including participation in the community area network. And, the iBOX
has the power to provide you security in your personal on-line
transactions or searches; such as: On-line Banking; Investing;
Shopping from Home; Information Searches; Educational Resource
Information; Current Events and Late-Breaking News; E-Mail
Communication; Surfing the 'Net; and others.

The iBOX is the enabling technology for providing goods and services
directly to the consumer through the electronic media.

Equipped with a built-in CD-ROM drive, the iBOX delivers custom
content in a unique exclusive distribution channel directly to any
home, office, classroom, or retail setting. Custom content includes
text, sound, and video formats to accommodate a variety of
applications; such as: Promotion of Products and Services;
Instructions, Tutorials and Primers; Computer-Based Training (CBT);
Sales and Marketing Presentations; Information Retrieval Database; and
more. 

The iBOX is the ideal information-and-presentation companion for home
and office. 

High-speed communication of the iBOX to the Internet through standard
telephone lines is facilitated through a built-in high-speed 33.6 kbps
modem, upgradeable to 56 kbps. 

The iBOX is also equipped to handle connection to a very-high-speed
ISDN line via a built-in configuration circuitry and connection.

The office version of the iBOX is shipped ready for connection to your
organization's LAN, through either a 10BaseT or 100BaseT Ethernet
connection. 

The CD-ROM is at the heart of the iBOX. When used as a local browser,
the iBOX can access content recorded on the CD, and because the local
browsing avoids the delays introduced by telephone lines, CD content
is accessed quickly and without transfer interruptions. The CD can be
accessed during off-line and on-line modes of operation. CD content
can include music-and-voice sound files, still Images, full-action
video with sound, and Web pages with fully functional links to other
CD-based pages or Internet URLs to provide the user with information
or instructions in a true multimedia environment. 

And with over half a gigabyte of storage capacity on the CD-ROM, there
is plenty of room remaining for future upgrades to ensure compliance
of your iBOX with advancing HTTP technology, development of more
robust HTML standards, and the growing number of extensions and
plug-ins offered by major browsers . 

iBOX contains solid-state digital circuitry that handles true
two-channel stereo separation. Load a music CD into the iBOX and enjoy
full stereo sound through the iBOX's headphone connection, or through
your TV sound system. Or, you can connect the iBOX directly to your
personal audio system, and enjoy the crisp hi-fidelity sound delivery
system employed by
