Title: Dial up for PSx2 and X-Baux

From Daily Radar:

Xbox, PS2 Narrowband Solution?  3/6/01 16:09  
 
 
Xtech has announced a product that will enable Xbox and PlayStation2 online gameplaying capabilities via dial-up Internet connections. Details on the product will be revealed in the coming weeks. Meanwhile, Xtech will say only that the vast majority of users still use narrowband accounts for online gaming, and they\'re being ignored by next-generation consoles that are shipping as "broadband enabled" only, so it is aiming to bridge that gap.

Well I think that mighty nice of them.  I don\'t have broadband yet..  But by the time on-line gaming comes out for the PSX2 I should already be moved and hopefully in an arean that has broadband support.  But if for some crack reason I am not, at least I will be able to use dial-up.. Ewwwwww but hey, gotta do what you gotta do..

:D
