NetPhonic Communications (Mt. View, CA  415/962-1111) has developed software
that enables users to access World Wide Web Pages by telephone, fax, or
e-mail, thus opening up the Web to those who do not have access to a PC. All
that is needed is a telephone. 

The product, Web on Call, is a UNIX-based Web server add-on. Whe used with a
voice modem, the software enables users to call into a Web site. The software
converts HTML pages into speech, with hypertext links signaled by a special
tone. Pressing a key on the telephone will forward to that link. Users also
have the option of having any page faxed or sent by e-mail. 

The software will cost $1000 per incoming line and will be avavilable in mid
1996. The company can arrange a phone demonstration.
