Its over, the relationship with

Its over, the relationship with the Newton has ended. It was a whirlwind experience. It started with a stumble into splorp.blog along with some lurking on Newtontalk. I was totally hooked. Purchased my first Newton from eBay. When it arrived it was instant love. This device was everything I had come to expect and more. I even started this blog to conical the Newton experience. From the information gleaned at Newtontalk and the many sites it referenced I was able to configure my Newton to connect with my G4 via serial cable, ethernet, and 802.11b. Even managed to post to my blog with the little guy. I was happy. I was content. Sold my Handspring Visor and Jornada on eBay and went totally Newton. The problem started when Palm released the Tungsten C. The advertisement caught my eye. Thought this might be the 802.11b magic I was looking for and I bought one. The intent was to just try it out then return it. It couldn’t possible compete with my Newton. As expected, it could not compete and I returned it as planned. Unfortunately I returned it for a Tungsten T. Just wanted to check it out. Well, now my Newton’s are gone and I’m a Tungsten T guy. The Newton is still a very remarkable devise, but for me the Tungsten T just does it.
