I had a pretty good experience with BradStuff on eBay. $102.50 winning bid,
$8 shipping, newton, leather case, and hayes 33.6 modem, and original stylys
included. Screen had some black crap on it, got almost all of it off now,
just need a little more time with it, but the case is a bit banged up - but
quite frankly I don't care, as the screen is mint.
