  Microsoft sets sail with high-seas Net access
Time: 05:16 EST/10:16 GMT | News Source: News.com | Posted By: Jonathan Tigner

As part of Microsoft's attempt to make the Web omnipresent, the company announced a new service Thursday that will connect boaters to the Internet. Seafaring Web surfers can stay connected 25 miles from land thanks to a partnership struck between Redmond, Wash.-based Microsoft and antenna maker KVH Industries.

KVH's Mobile Internet Receiver will connect users of MSN TV service, a customized version of the MSN TV 2 Internet and Media Player, to the Web. Under the plan, customers can access Microsoft Windows Media player, MSN Mail, MSN Messenger and MSN Radio, to name just a few applications.

"Today's consumers expect to be able to stay connected while they're on the go in their vessels," Sam Klepper, MSN TV's general manager, said in a statement. "Consumers will now be able to communicate, access information and enjoy digital entertainment where their travels take them."
