ST. PAUL, Minn., July 6 /PRNewswire/ -- Kiosks.Org ( http://www.kiosks.org ) issues new research prediction that 100,000 Web Payphones will be installed in the U.S. by the end of 2002 with public service terminals over 100,000 market units by 2004 with a worldwide market over 7 billion dollars.

"In our view there is tangible acceleration of projects in public service, gaming and recreation/retail sectors. The expanding Internet creates infrastructure where they was none before," said Craig Keefner of Kiosks.Org.
