Posted here before the dreaded eBay.

One eMate with memory expansion installed - Excellent condition...the
screen shows no visible scratches. Backlight is nice and bright. The
hinge shows no creaking and operates smoothly. Includes:

- eMate
- Serial to eMate cable
- Grotesquely ugly neon orange aftermarket stylus
- Newton Power Adapter Model H1300

I will do a hard reset before shipping.

Also, I have a case for the MP110, 120 or 130 - very unusual...bright
yellow spongy material, like nerf.

Please email offlist with offers.

Thanks!

If you can master nonsense as well as you have already learned to master
sense, then each will expose the other for what it is: absurdity. From
that moment of illumination, a man begins to be free regardless of his
surroundings.

More memory may help in your situation, but I don't know about ink text
or sketches. I tested printing a relatively large NewtWorks document
today. It was over 2200 words long and there was no trouble printing.
The pdf was 5 pages long and printed in a matter of seconds. Ink text,
on the other hand, took 2 minutes to process 18 words before printing.
Sketches are not much better. The problem may be more to do with
processing the drawn text/sketch for the printer.
If that is the case, I really don't know what we can do other than
convert all the ink text in a note before printing and keep sketches to
a minimum.

On a side note, have you thought about freezing some applications your
not using right now and checking if it makes a difference? If the
problem your having is due to memory then doing that may help.
Also, what happens if you try to print a note with just text? You may be
more limited by the eMate's 25MHz processor than by memory. The 2100 has
a 162MHz processor, in comparison.
