I resent that! I am a Newton OMP owner, and wish to get myself a 2100
or a 2000U.
So what you are saying is, I should toss it out and go buy a Palm, just
so you can keep all 10 Newton's to yourself. Riiight. I don't
thinkso. Because of people like you, it is darn near impossible to get
a 2100. And even then it won't have anything (including a charger or
bat back) with it.. Not only that, the prices are going way way up.
If you need 10 Newton's as spare parts. The I would say you are as
rough as guts with them, and sure as hell don't deserve having a newton
in the first place..

My 2 cents. And I am sure many others feel the same.
