=================
Apple Newton MessagePad 2100
Not an upgraded 2000 but an original 2100!

 Cost USD 200 for MP2000 and USD250 for MP2100

    The release of the Newton MessagePad 2000 brought a true revolution to
the Newton's hardware configuration and form factor. The upgrade to the
MessagePad 2100 quadrupled the RAM (now 4MB) available for system resources
to play in! The 2000/2100 series has an ECL backlit screen like the MP130
but with twice the number of pixels (480 x 320 vs. previous model's 320 x
240) in a 20% increase in screen dimensions resulting in a high resolution
display (100 dpi vs. 85 dpi). It also propelled the Newton from being just
black and white pixels to 16 level grayscale pixels. The most amazing
development is clearly its CPU chip. It has a 162 MHz StrongARM 110 RISC
chip that puts out 150 MIPS (@400 MIPS/watt). The previous newtons all had
20 MHz ARM RISC chips that ran at 15 MIPS (1/10 th the speed) and 100
MIPS/watt thus using 4 times as much power. The net result of the StrongARM
chip is an unbelievable ten fold increase in speed with 1/4 the power usage.
This is ideal for a handheld device and gives the latest Newton weeks to
months of battery life. This is one insanely great computer!

Included: Unit with 4Mb RAM card, stylus, lithium ion battery (charges),
serial cable, factory install of software and AC adapter.

Condition: Fully functional and cosmetically good with light wear.
Guaranteed non-DOA.
