They just plain dont work anymore, it was thought that If you could provide a
page provider (DONT mention anything about Newton) and tell them you have a
pager on such and such frequency that it could be activated. I have been
looking into this for a longtime. It was discoverd by another list member (Chad
Welsh) that it has somthing to do with the date.
If you set the date backwards on your Newton to 1996 (Dont remember if this is
exact, but you get the idea) Then it would work. It sounds as if it might be
possible to rectify.
Do a google search on "Newton Messaging Card"
