For my wife, WebTV is easier to use than a PC. The E-mail lacks some features, but maybe their upgrade will improve things. All in all, I like the ease of using it and would recommend it to anybody that wants to be connected to the internet and does not like PC's.

My main concern is the inability to access certain information because the site utilizes information that WebTV can't use. I have communicated this concern to WebTV and they said that this is one of the fixes they plan for the future, but didn't say when. The sooner the better.

I hope WebTV updates soon for Java and shockwave support, and also the ability to get frames - this really bugs me. But as far as a web browser this is it. I love to sit in my living room recliner and surf the web on WebTV. I just don't like all the sites I can't use fully.

Never owned a computer before, but now that I own a WebTV, besides enjoying Net surfing, the Email is one of the most inventive, exciting feature ! The fastest, (cheapest) exciting way of communicating !

Like it ! I live in an apartment and don't want a computer to dominate a whole room. WebTV is like a VCR. Wish list: 1.) Wish it could view frames. 2.) Wish it had V3.0 of ReaLAudio. 3.) Wish it used Microsoft's JavaVM.

I've had my WebTV for a week now, and wish there was more information on the use of it as it pertains to the web. Had problems getting in to some chat rooms that WebTV couldn't handle. Hope I can watch shuttle TV (NASA) with WebTV in the near future.

Went with the Sony rather over the Philips: colored keyboard and more ergonomic remote seemed easier to use.

I have had Webtv since Nov 23, 1996 and been experiencing a problem when I write E-mail or any Web page. I have contacted webtv and the the moment they are unable to find a solution. I have even shut off my call waiting and had the telephone line checked upon Webtv's suggestion. At the moment, I'm waiting to hear from WebTV for an update or what can be done. If you know what the problem might be please let me know as well...DavesAirchecks@webtv.net

I am having a hard time convincing WebTV that the problem of not being able to view long pages is a big one, and that as new users, or current users surf more they will encounter this problem many times. Please All Users, complain to WebTV WeCare if you have encountered this problem. Send pages in which you encountered this to jlee@webtv.net.
