    The readme file for the BackTalk demo package notes that the demo
version is limited to receiving and viewing beams from the Palm. You can't
send (or "put away") from the Newton end until you install and register the
full version.

    You don't need the other three packages if you're just running the demo.

    Email me privately with details & your asking price... I think my
brother may be in the market for one.
