I've always wondered about the practicality of doing something like fidonet over AX25/some other packet radio system. It'd be fabulous to be able to ditch the internet and participate in something slower and more humane. Your post has reminded me of that ambition. These days, I'd love an e-ink display to accompany it. Slow computing!
