Hi Steven

This is very inspiring to see.

As you can see the whole of Newtontalk is watching your and Matthias' 
developments with considerable interest.

There again if the comments on your blog are anything to go by it seems 
that are many others who would dust off their Newtonian inclinations, if 
things keep progressing.

How does the saying go...'you can take the man from the Newton, but 
never the Newton from the man'....I think Yoda may have said this.

Amazing developments indeed.

Wouldn't it be ironic if Apple, having discarded the Newton, awoke in 
2011/12 to find that a mass of previous Newton owners, happily using the 
Newton OS, as preferred applications on their i-somethings. Even more 
ironic, if through these developments, Apple re-realised the  potential 
of the platform and integretrated Newton-like developments from here on..

Thanks to Paul Guyot (who is obviously a very talented man, yourself, 
Matthias and others, the Newton fairly tale, may indeed have a happy ending.

Andy
