Matt, I think that you can read this from the card. On the back of
my Farallon card there is an address labeled "SN=" followed by the
10 digits and letters that make up the address (e.g., 6LF14...). I
gave this information to the people here that run the network and
they were happy and my Newton is registered on the network. Hope
that this helps.
