Excellent! And while you're at it, see if they can be encouraged to start a
movement within Apple to give us our beloved Newt in a 21st century
version...

It never fails, I've been in 3 different Apple stores in the last 6 weeks,
in the US and UK, and my Newton draws attention and interest, and on 2
occasions, a former Newton user who saw me making notes of stuff I'm looking
for and decided to dig his out and start using it again.

*at this point I feel something coming on akin to Morpheus' speech in the
cave -- "we are not afraid! We will tell mobilize Newton-lovers to campaign
and we will not accept defeat!"*

 
Shalom.
Christian
