Robert,
I didn't think I'd get to this point either, but my life has gotten
much busier recently. I get home from work to find 98 NT messages.
Sometimes there are very valuable bits of info that come through,
but I simply do not have the time to deal with 100+ messages a
day, a large portion of them being OT. I don't want to miss out,
but this is rediculous. One BIG reason why I love the Newton is
because it helps me be more effective in a shorter amount of time.
This is rapidly becoming no longer effective.
Sorry. Gotta run. I'll set vaca and try back in a couple weeks.
