[NTLK] Wooden Newton

[Alan Grassia]

Hello Noah and Newton Friends,

It is my understanding that wooden prototype devices are made as a cheap, quick, and easy means to get the feel for it in the hand.

Cheers,
Alan Grassia

I saw a couple when I was making the film. He asked me if I knew the story behind it, and I realized I don’t. Anyone know? Adam Tow told me they were handed out at press events, but I don’t know anything beyond that.
