For all of you interested in purchasing these newtons dont believe what GEM is telling Mark.
What they are offering is not a special at all...its what they have been offering all along. I have email correspondence to prove this. You are likely to get scratched up Newton's as they only sell the "GOOD QUALITY" ones for 170 bucks and above. Take your business to an independent seller on ebay. It will help promote personal sales and teach companies like GEM that customer service should always be Number 1.
Im on the trail of where these Newton's are coming from and ive almost figured it out. Let me tell you they are making a bundle on us. The PRODUCT RESALE COMPANY made a bundle on the early adopters of Newton's.
Just my 2 cents.
Cheers

Subject: [NTLK] GEM Newtons
OK, I've gotten some more clarification from the GEM folks. Here's what
they offer:
If we buy 5-10 used 2100/UPG 2000 Newtons, they will offer for $99.00
free shipping to the continental US and at cost everywhere else. This
can result in a savings of approximately $11.00. These Newtons are in
very good condition with minor scratches. They come with only the pen
and a rechargeable battery. They said that almost all of the
rechargables are working and they can replace defective ones. They also
have a wide variety of accessories at additional cost. They do not,
however, have any of the AA battery holders. If we wish, they can pick
out by hand ones with no screen scratches, but this will be at a higher
cost (unspecified, but I can find out).
They also have 6 2100's that are NEW in box. They come with NiMH
batteries, AC adaptor, phone cord, 33.6 modem and blank card for the
empty slot. These can be had for $400 for 5 orders or $450 each.
Let me know (off list please) what your interested in.
Mark
