You might want to look on UNNA <http://www.unna.org/> for it. I'm not sure
it is there, but I think you have a good chance to find it there.
I don't fully understand your problem with the "Extras". What are you
looking for? Is it that you can't find "Extras" in the status bar?
BTW, if you just got that 2000, did you think about doing a hard reset to
bring it back to its factory defaults? You might have other problems down
the road if you try to use it in the state you did receive it. If you do a
hard reset, the only things that will be missing will be NetHopper and
NewtonWorks. I believe that all other applications are in ROM by default, so
doing a "hard reset" would bring back "Extras" and you would then be able to
access any other apps. You would also come up with a clean internal memory.
Probably only God knows what the previous owner did install and ran on it,
so I would strongly suggest that you perform that "hard reset" before
starting to seriously use it. If you don't know what is a "hard reset",
check the FAQ on Newton Resources <http://www.chuma.org/newton/faq/>.
