Videoway is available in London (England) from Videotron PLC for 1 pound (http://www.dna.lth.se/cgi-bin/kurt/rates?CAD+GBP if you want to see today's rate) per month, including VAT (Value Added Tax, equivalent to GST/QST in Quebec). Technology that is supposedly Canadian, exported to England costs less there than it does here! In fact, over 400% less! Makes you wonder, doesn't it? And amazingly enough, the managed to make all the services available in English. Doesn't it just PISS you off to see the profits they are making on these things? The engine of an Apple // with the same capabilities, leased for $108.72 a year!
