A while back, I bought a Newton (Message Pad 120) from a coworker. I've loved it ever since (it's big, durable, and I could hit someone with it!). A couple weeks ago, when my friend and I went to the computer junk yard, I found a Message Pad 130. It didn't have a battery back or a stylus. On the other hand, it had 2MB flash storage card. Considering I found it at the junk yard, I figured it would be crap, and I only actually bought it for the storage card. Turns out it works, and even has the feature to make the screen light up so all my stuff is going to get converted over to the new one.
Does anyone know anything about Newtons? I'm wondering what kinds of programs there are for it (I would love to find an Excel type program for it) and what success/problems you've had with it.
Also, is it possible to find a card reader for that kind of thing? So far I've had no luck but I want to make sure everything is backed up.
