I've loaded mine up with power brick, small notepad, pen, extra
stylus, extra batteries, wireless card, ethernet adapter cable for
ethernet card (in newton), and my pocket digicam (not shown; it's
taking the pictures). Plenty of room left over for my bluetooth card
when it gets here.

Prices are considerable lower than the $35 listed. They quoted me
$23 for a single case (just double-checked), and $12 for two or
more. Basically, buy one get for a buck.

It's a little thicker than I expected (it's 4" thick), but, it holds
_everything_ (except for the USB-serial adapter and serial cable, but
that's not really necessary when you can dock via ethernet or
bluetooth). It also comes with a strap, but the dimensions with
strap attached are painfully close to that of a purse. I'm just
sticked to the handle that's on the spine.

If I could find some way to get the Newton to tell me the name of a
wireless network, it would be all the kit I need. But that's a
problem for another day.
