  Have a look at the Red-i web server; perhaps it meets your needs.

  I've looked at the document referenced.·
  I believe this is what I need, but I wish there was better document to illustrate how to use with Stamp in detail.
  
  Is there a Nuts & Volts article?· Any plans in near future for an article?· Or perhaps Parallax document to show how to connect and program in detail?
  
  Thanks.

  I do not plan to write about that product in my column (I have no interest in connecting microcontrollers to the Internet) ... sorry. That doesn't stop another writer from doing it though. You can always contact our Tech Support group (support@parallax.com) for assistance.

  I too wish that someone, if not Jon, then someone of similar high journalistic skill, would write a comparative article like that. When I look at the advertising information and published specs, I have always been left wondering what the thing can do and what would be involved to set it up, cookbook like. My requirements are usually a screen with current readings, and capability for file transfer of accumulated data, Low power and direct connect to a modem or to the phone lines. There are a lot of products out there that claim internet connectivity, but it is kind of hard to evaluate them head to head. It seems like you have to purchase one of each to discover the gotchas!
