I've done that exactly three times... Every time, I was with my young
daughters, and every time, they had problems. Twice, I drove off, leaving
the Newton. Both times, it took me a long time to get back, and both times,
the Newton was still there. The third time, I didn't even leave the trolley,
just turned my back while getting my little daughter in the car, and
somebody lifted it while my back was turned. I know they thought they were
getting a man's hand wallet (Ed's "man bag"), probably with money. I'm sure
they were surprised and disappointed to find the Newton... I shutter to
think what happened to it (probably right in the trash!) :-( But the other
two incidents were amazing... :-)
