EDEN
PRAIRIE, Minn. – 05/03/99 - Quantum Communications Group, Inc., a
leading Internet consulting firm, announced the addition of OnQue Internet

features, local dial-up coverage in 2,000 cities coupled with 24/7/365 day

“OnQue
Internet Services was originally founded out of frustration with other
nationwide ISPs, “ stated Leonard Davis, President of OnQue.
“While we appreciate the work that AOL and MSN have done as
pioneers in our industry, we believe there are millions of Internet
subscribers who are fed up with busy signals, Email delays, trouble with
attachments, the clutter of advertisements and the overall difficulty in
reaching customer service in a timely fashion…if at all.
OnQue’s charter is to provide the discriminating Internet
subscriber with the fastest, most feature-rich Internet service at a value
price. Once you go online
with OnQue, we guarantee you’ll get the best service available on the
web!”
Unlike
many facilities-based ISPs, OnQue is a Virtual Internet Service Provider

need to hire extensive technical and/or sales staffs.
The only responsibility of the VIP is to market the
service. The program is
completely branded, from the Internet browser and Portal Start Page, to
the Email domain and technical support.
According to Patrice Smith, Director of

percent of US online households indicated their willingness to switch to
an Internet access service provided by an affinity group or company if

business,” added Hall.
