Just got this PDA and it's way more useful that I thought originally!

I wish I could have gotten a 2100 instead but I got this one for only 30£ so I immediately took it :D

Wow, nice! And still works!

Check out this MacWorld edition from 1993!

Note what Guy says about smartphones in the interview.

    I had one of those exact models, and I would counter with no, no it’s not. Even if I thought it would be zero on the useful scale, my experience was that it was negative useful.

    Ok ok I must admit, the letter and word recognition on my model of newton is not the best, even slightly worst than I thought BUT, what redeems that is the facts there's a built in onscreen keyboard that you can bring up at any time by just tapping the screen twice wherever you want to type
