Nick, it seems like there are a number of generous offers to help you
out and unfortunately I am too far away (in Indianapolis) to be of much
help.
However, I want to suggest that you may still want to find a used USB
adapter, etc., even with these generous offers. If you ever have to wipe
everything from your Newton and/or your card, you will need to get the
ethernet driver back again. That's why, even though I only use the
ethernet connection now, I got a dongle and the appropriate USB
connector. Just in case ... of emergencies that may lurk behind the
corner!
Just my 2 cents.
