Review 1 of 1

Price Paid:  $130.00 from Bryn Mawr Stereo

Summary:
There is good news and bad news about the Sony INT200. First the good: This is an excellent method to access the internet and send and receive e-mail. For about a tenth the cost of a computer, you get reliable and virtually complete use of the internet as well as electronic mail. I strongly recommend upgrading the keyboard, to the INT250 model as it is totally different and more like a traditional keyboard versus the impossible-to-use miniature keyboard. The PIP functions are excellent.
Now the bad: depending on the time or day you use the terminal it can be either slow or painfully slow. I'm used to a DSL line at work and the difference hurts. It is also quirky, as most computers are, and every once in a while it will do things not asked.

Strengths:
Easy access to web. Easy to use, navigate. Excellent e-mail system.

Weaknesses:
Slower than a traditional dial-up modem. Occassional glitches.
