My suggestion too, but the only thing to get the packages onto your Newt is
another Newt with the packages installed, you'll need the Newton Devices.pkg
and the NIE Ethernet Support.pkg (and probably the driver for your Ethernet
card) highly recommended anyway.
BTW, I have been surviving without a serial port for over a year now, if you
don't need your keyboard you can actually live with a Newton without a
serial connection,
helps that I have other Newtons around the house though ;-)
