Newton talker/ (SONUG) returns

Hello Newton talkers,
I'm  trying to find the wikiwkinewt resources that
unna and Victor hosted many years ago. It was a plain text
"how to" on everything Newton.
I have a 2100 and a 2000 that I haven't used in about 6 or 7
years. I did buy Hiroshi's wi-fi driver and used to connect
to hotspots in Toronto and even download my email.
However, I've forgotten much.
I'd like to know the best combination of internet utilities
to use, and where to find posts about set-up.
Thank you,
Roman

Box of eight Newtons (100, 110, 120 and 130) for sale

I've recently donated a bunch of Newtons and related stuff to the 
Computer History Museum. They already had some items so they sent them 
back and they could be yours!

I have no idea what they're worth. If you're interested please contact 
me at tonymeadow <at> gmail.com and let me know what they're worth to you. 
The total weight for all this is 20 pounds and they're in Oakland, CA.

Newtons! I've got eight Newtons for sale. A surprising number of them 
worked as soon as I put new batteries in them. The others might work 
with some TLC. Some are missing styli, but there's several extra 
MessagePad 100 styluses. There's also 3x Newton battery pack rechargers 
(H1200).

MessagePad 100 (qty 1 - works!)
MessagePad 110 (qty 2 - both work)
MessagePad 120 (qty 1, doesn't work)
MessagePad 130 (qty 4, 2 work, 2 don't)

Also included:

Books:
Newton Programmers Guide: System Software, vol 1 (1995)
Newton Toolkit Users Guide (11/1995)
Newton Programmers Guide (for Newton 2.0, 1996)
Newton User Interface Guidelines (5/1996)
Programming for the Newton, Julie McKeehan & Neil Rhodes (1st ed, 1994)
Programming for the Newton, Julie McKeehan & Neil Rhodes (2nd ed, 1996)

Wifi On the Go

Check one. Check two. Anybody out there? Is this thing on?

Though I would pass along a recent discovery. The developers of the Android app, Wifi Tether for Root Users,
has released a beta version on their website that includes two really cool features. 1: It works with Ice
Cream Sandwich on my LTE Galaxy Nexus. 2: Allows my phone to create a true wifi hotspot rather than the
ad-hoc network the previous app version did.

So if you have a rooted Android phone and wifi capable Newton, then you can keep your green friend connected
to the Internet anywhere you go. If nothing else, you still have a cool novelty to show off to friends.

Newton Sales Collateral

Hello,

I have recently acquired some very interesting Newton software CDs , apart from the usual software discs
there are 2 that where used for training sales teams selling the Newton. This is of particular interest to
me as I worked selling Apple computers for many years and still work in sales.

The problem I'm having is that the sales sheets are in MacWrite Pro and the slide shows in Persuasion Player?
I can't find a converter for either format or have access to the 'classic' environment any more. 

Does any one still have an old Mac they could look at the files with and maybe convert them into PowerPoint or
PDF/Word for me?

I have added the files to my dropbox account or I can email them over.

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/21709652/NewtonFiles.zip

The other discs I acquired and happy to share are:

Newton Connection Utilities Update
The Newton, Software and accessory guide
Apple Sales - Selling Newton into Large Organisations
Apple Sales - Newton Business Solutions Kit
eMate 300 connectivity kit
MessagePad Upgrade CD
The Totally Incomplete CD-ROM for Newton - Huge collection of Newton Apps
Apple Developer CD #12
Apple Developer CD #5
Apple Developer CD Dec 95

Thank

WTB: PDA Panache stylus

Hello,

I'm looking for one of these for an MP2100.  Please tell me what color stylus 
you have, the condition it's in, and your asking price, along with shipping to 
zip 95132 (SF Bay Area).  

I need the stylus shipped in a small box of some kind, please, to protect it 
from the depredations of my local postal personnel (who seem fond of reenacting 
past World Cups with my parcels serving as the football). 

PayPal is my preferred payment method.  Folks who can accept credit card-funded 
PP payments will take priority over those who can only take balance transfers, 
but I can do both.

Best,

James Fraser

Unresponsive Newton

Today, I fired up my Newton —specifically a MessagePad 2000u, after  
several days of disuse, and lo and behold, the system is  
unresponsive. Specifically the touchscreen. The reset and on/off/ 
backlight buttons work, the Newton recognizes PCMCIA cards, basically  
everything seems to be working as usual, except for the digitizer. I  
don't think it’s the dreaded jaggies.

I hope it’s a software issue, although hopefully not one that  
requires a hard reset.

Help would be greatly appreciated!

Max Smith
