There are three things I do to impress people with my
newt.
One, is handwriting. Set it for guest mode and let the
other person write whatever they want and let them be
amazed. It gets them every time.
Two, play back what they wrote with MacinTalk . (you
can get the packages plus a canned phrase on my site:
http://newton.tek-ed.com.
Point your newton to the above url/vox.txt
Then cut and past into your notepad.
The third thing I do works better if you have the
viewer's information in your address book. In this
case, you dentist's information.
Open a blank slip, type "meet with dr. smith next
thursday" and then hit the assist button. Watch as
their jaw falls to the floor as the Newton interprets
the intention of the real-english query and actually
performs what you asked!
Any one of these is enough to win over any fence
sitter, and it really isn't fair to hit them with all
three...especially when you tell them that Newtons
aren't being made anymore...(I just love THAT
expression. So much sadness)
