Does anybody know of a PRESTEL emulator for the Amiga? Bruno

Bruno, I have RubyView from Y2 computing in Watford which I used to use for Prestel. I don't know whether it works with WB 2 or later, but if you want to risk a fiver I'll post it to you. Pete Jones, Brussels, Belgium, flying on AutoPilot

Peter, I am interested. How can I reach you? Bruno, Brussels

BRUNO, since we are in the same city, call me. 731 7345. If you would like to come over and pick it up you can have it for nothing. Bent U Nederlandstalig? Pete Jones, Brussels

Pete, thanks for Ruby View. I have tried to use it on my Amiga, but it requires a dongle. I am going to write to Y2. Let's hope they still exist.

Bruno, I had forgotten about the dongle. It should still be here somewhere. I'll try to find it. Pete

I think you`ll find Y2 is now out of business. They were in Watford in Hertfordshire and I can`t seem to trace them, so I think they have gone! Nancy

Bruno, I have tried contacting Y2 but there was no reply from there phone. I think they have ceased trading. Their phone number is 0923 243785 Gopal on AutoPilot from Beatle city Liverpool, U.K.

I believe Prestel is the same as Viatel (renamed Discovery) here, so you could try GPTerm by Greg Perry. regards, Lu on AutoPIlot downunder

GPTerm works fine with Prestel. Andrew.
