Hmmm. Since reading Marco's mail I have consciously tried to use the newt
on a flat surface and kept my hand from resting on the right edge while
using it in portrait mode. The jaggies have reduced but not gone away. I
have always used it in portrait mode, I'll try using it in landscape mode
for a change to just see if the jaggies go away. Maybe the Newt was
originally designed with landscape mode being the primary scenario in mind.

Since I've been through more Newton's than I care to count (a;most equaling
the total of Woo) and never had the jaggies on any of them it always kept me
wondering.

Now this part about the resting of the hand/pressure...

I've always used my Newts in landscape, could there be a relation, anybody
on this list that ever had the jaggies while they use landscape all of the
time?
(could make sense that prolonged pressure on the small edges could
attribute, just speculating of course)
