Great stuff Otto although I didn't actually locate any applications
created using Fieldworker on a newton. I've done some of this in the
past and think it's still one of the best tools out there. I think
FieldWorker has finally moved farther away from newton support but at
least recently the application was still available. I have two copies
and hope to do more work with in now that I've switched jobs.
I'd be interested in hearing more of what others might have done with
this tool. Also, http://www.gpsy.com/ makes a great mac cable that
works with Fieldworker/newton/mac connections and they also make a
great gps tool for the same.
