Just about anything that works on a 2x00 will work on an eMate as well, just
not the ButtonBar enhancing utilities (since there isn't a Button Bar to
enhance...)

handy and free are Tasks on
http://www.sbm.nu/englisch/newton/tasks/index.htm which will give you a Mac
like application switching menu and EZ Access, which will permit you to get
around your Extra's Drawer, not one of the fastest launching applications on
an eMate ;-)

You should be able, especially if you've been surfing already, which means
that the connection Newton/Mac or Newton/Bade Station already works.

Just make sure that AppleTalk is set to Airport and NCU as well.
