From a recent Viz, the 'Skinternet' is what poor people have instead of the
Internet, that is, Ceefax/Teletext.
Does anyone know of a TV set that caches the pages of these services? Or is
software for handling same on a linux machine with a TV card?
IWSTM that it would be incredibly simple to put together, hugely convenient to
those waiting for a page to come up, would take up very little memory, could
cache pages on other channels at the same time, and could be a good way of
dealing with 'character drops' in areas with poor reception.
