About
Netfax: the news, as it looked in 1985. Netfax turns today's headlines into a 40×24, eight-colour teletext screen, loosely inspired by Ceefax, Oracle, Prestel and the Stock Exchange's TOPIC. Type a three-digit page, press the coloured keys, and let the headlines roll past on a 25-second carousel. The news can be pretty depressing these days. Seen through a low-res, eight-colour filter, it's a little easier to take. • Bring your own news. Add any RSS feed, or tap Add News for a ready-made…
