The Newt 110, 120 and 130 were all the same size (I
think that the 130 was slightly thicker...but since I
never owned one, I don't know that for sure)
To answer your question, Yes, the OMP was the
smallest...slightly larger than the original Palm
pilot. And a bit thicker (and with a handwriting
recognition system that could make anyone a standup
commedian!) IMHO, the first viable Newt was the 120
with OS2.0 (upgraded from 1.3) The MP2K is large (er)
than the rest, but with a meaningful purpose. The
screen is easier to read and it has two PC card slots.
It can still fit in a pant pocket, but I prefer my
Eddie Bauer satchel.

this is a temporary sig file until I can figure out a more clever one to use
