Peter,
Well... I was think MP3's, and books. Take a look at these two sites,
and you will see what I mean.
http://www.40hz.org/MADNewton/
http://www.pixell.net/doppler/newton/
I was thinking about putting MadMax and the releated MP3's on the 1GB
card, so I would be able to swap in music whenever I wanted.
I guess I could just get a iPod, but I am trying to limit what I carry
around. I expect to listen to music in my car and at work.
Chris

Out of sheer curiosity _ what the heck do you plan to do with all
that storage on a Newton? If you were to even half fill it, you'd have
to have most of the packages frozen or you'd run out of heap _ and some
of the soups could become gigantic. And several hundred packages (about
20MB worth) is enough of an organizational nightmare _ I can't imagine
trying to keep track of even a GB of packages. Am I missing something
here?
