   The BBS and/or echomail messaging probably had less appeal than     
   the new kid in town - internet.  Even access to the internet     
   via POTS had much fewer busy-signal woes.   
      
   And then, the new fun toy - a smartphone, started to attract     
   the masses.   
      
   WRT fidonet of packet radio, I had not heard of the effort. Was     
   it announced in any of the Fidonews issues?
