But should backtalk not correct this problem of incompatibility, since it
upgrades the IRDA standards in our Newtons. Newtons should be able to
communicate with Palmpilots directly through Infrared using Backtalk, and I
already heard about people beaming adresses to their cellphones using
Backtalk. So why no use it to get your mail?

Anybody any experience with backtalk?
