Yes looks like the "orignal" MP2x00.

Apparently the team loved it, but no one on the board did and wanted a
cheaper device. I have to wonder if the Newton wasn't spun out on its
own, would have the MP2x00 even seen the light of day? From seeing this
it makes me think that they finally did what they wanted and went back
to the orignal design (albeit tweeking and improving from that prototype
by the looks).

Very very interesting. I would also love to fire it up and see what the
actual differences are with regard to the OS. And I hope whoever does
win it, does so and letting the community know. Rather than just stick
it on a shelf.....
