About iBox
IBox (Internet in a Box) was one of the first commercially available Internet connection software packages available for sale to the public. O'Reilly & Associates (now O'Reilly Media) created and produced the package, in collaboration with Spry, Inc. Spry, Inc. also started up a commercial Internet service provider (ISP) called InterServ.
The IBox software included the Winsock program and TCP/IP stack that were needed to connect a computer running Microsoft Windows to the Internet in 1994.
iBox appeared on Dragons' Den UK (Series 5, Episode 2) in 2007.
Masuma Fatima pitched the product to the Dragons.
No deal.
Where they are now: iBox's pitch failed due to the dragons’ dissatisfaction with the appearance of the product and belief that it did not solve any issues typical products on the market did not. Equity terms not broadcast. Duncan Bannatyne stated at the time that the product was one of the worst presented in the show's history.
