There was also the ability to send and recieve e-mail through your TV and for a tenner you could buy a wireless Open.... keyboard, which I think doubled as a remote for SkyDigital. I used to like it for the CD reviews but it took bloody forever to load.Yes Open.. was a nice idea but way ahead of its time technically and made obsolete by the web. They were bought up by Sky and disappeared totally.
I bought an 'Open' keyboard in Dixons. Translucent blue plastic ?
It was about a Tenner. I recall the salesman attempting to sell me an extended warranty for it for 25 quid !
