Cheers Julie,

the formats that should please you would be in any case Universal (the=20=

lowest common denominator of all formats -- fits ALL Newts) and Classic=20=

(the portrait-oriented larger format for all MP 1x0). The eMate and MP=20=

2000 formats won't work for you.

Note that about all titles in below sig are available in all 8 Newton=20
formats, so these should suit your Newt just fine. Some are pretty=20
large, though, you'll appreciate having a storage card (4 MB upwards -=20=

I use two of Frank Gruendel's/Russ Bravo's very fairly priced and=20
recommendable 20 MB cards to lug a whole bookshelf around).

And if you're a writer (as your addy suggests) you'll be happy to learn=20=

that you can easily make your own Newton eBooks. The tools are on UNNA=20=

for free, some pointers there, too, and on the Wiki. And there's a=20
bunch of bookish Newtonians always looking forward to helping you get=20
started with bookmaking (I'll spare you ye oulde boring "give something=20=

back to the community"-spiel).

Regards,

'Kasko
