Short Take: EarthLink to be ISP for NewCom set-top box

EarthLink will be the exclusive Internet access provider for NewCom's WebPal set-top boxes, which let users surf online with their TV and existing telephone line. WebPal buyers who sign up for a one-year period with EarthLink will get a $60 rebate from NewCom, a waiver for the ISP's $25 set-up fee, and a free month of service.
