	Internet providers are available throughout the area.  You can find 
shell access with unlimited hours for less than $20 a month.

	I am assuming that you are talking about a TV to display both PAL and 
NTSC system pictures.  No single TV will do that, however, you can buy 
VCRs that are capable of playing and recording tapes in both PAL and 
NTSC formats.  They can be expensive, though, around $1200.  Otherwise, 
you can have your PAL tapes converted.


>3)	Can I buy  a) Indian food, ie poppadums, nan bread curry powders etc ?

	Indian food is available in quantity, at least in the North Bay.  There are a plethora of Asian food stores here, as well as restaurants.

	Not sure about the Oral-B heads, but I doubt you will have difficulty finding them at department stores.
