soundDataDef??? That sounds like an audio recording to me. The value of
-1 doesn't look promising, looking back on it.
I think I saw something similiar while I was poking around in there, but
having never done so before I thought it might be the proper value for
such a note. Shows what I know.

Agreed.

Ack! I had a few audio notes in there as well... those might have been

When I experienced this bug, I had deleted some older records from the
InBox and moved the record beamed over into the Names application. I
don't know enough about the guts of NewtonOS yet to say why that might
have made a difference, though...

Yes, it was.
