OK i must say that i was never under the impression that we were trying to get apples attention. what purpose would this serve? are they going to take all of our (the ntlk community) improvements put them in in a new system and give us new newtons? i doubt it. they, as we have already discussed in numerous threads, have gotten out of the pda field, more than likely arent coming back, and if they do they are not going to say "thanx for sticking around here's a lil sumthin for your support. " for the most parts any advancements that come out of the minds of the geniuses that have improved out newtows thru h/w or s/w will only get the attention of those of us that already own one or want to buy one. i doubt that any company, unless we create one, will reinvent our newton, basically for the same reasons that it was discontinued originally. we as a community have sustained and advanced our newtons. we as a community will take it to its next level and beyond.

now on a more personal note i would love if more of the new advancements were pc/windows based as well. hint hint 8-)

John,

If you want to get the attention of Apple, preserve the value of the
Newt, increase adoptability, or prove that our platform can compete in
this market, then this is your chance to be heard.

What do you think?
