Thanks, Robert. I got it all hooked up and synched. Now just a couple of
other questions....

FIrst, after I synched my Newt and Mac, I noticed that the keyboard would
not work on my Mac at all (mouse worked just fine) until I rebooted. Has
anyone ever encountered this before?

Second, one of the things I have in mind to do is take some of the
frequently used lists from my job and put them on my Newt. (I work for
Wisconsin DOT, and so want to put some things like the office phone list,
municipal and circuit court lists, etc., on it, so they'll be easier to
access than going into Word or Excell all the time.) My IT guy at work
(also a Mac owner in private life) thinks we can convert them to .txt files,
and then e-mail them to my Mac at home, and then I can put them on the Newt.
I guess what I need to know is this: Will my Newt accept .txt files, or will
I need to convert them to another format (one that is acceptable to both my
Mac and the Newt)? And also, how do I do that, transfer them from the Mac
to the Newt, I mean? Do I do it through the "synch" process, or through the
"add package" one?

All the Best,

Chris
