I just bought a Fujitsu P-2040 for travel (including toting into
meetings in the next building, and taking to my kids' orchestra
practice). Yes, it runs W2K Pro, not OS X, but the iBook is 4.9 lbs
min, and this unit is 3.2 lbs with the modular DVD/CD-RW in, 2.7 with
it out. It's also about half the size of my G3 Firewire PB, but with a
really sharp 1280x768 (I may have the lower-order digits wrong)
screen. Pix at:

alongside my MP2100. I've only had it for a week, but it is pretty
impressive. It has 4-pin Firewire (not the 6-pin powered version, but
you can get adapters).

Posted to the list because I thought people might be interested in the
Newton size comparison. --PR
