The first thing to do when buying a Newton (besides subscribing to
NewtonTalk!) is to read the FAQ. Then, you can start asking for things not
covered in the FAQ or ambiguous.
The 9W adapter would be good for your 120 and eMate. You won't be able to
find a flash RAM card that you will be able to use in both. The 120 uses
cards that are 12v in writing and 12v in reading and the eMate uses 5v/5v. I
think that the eMate can read 12v, but it won't be able to write to them.
The 120 might also be able to read 5v (I doubt it), but it would certainly
be unable to write to them.
The other thing that you might be able to use in both of them is a modem
card. And the pen. That's pretty much it. You will be able to use Ethernet
or wireless cards in your eMate, but you won't be able to use them in your
120.
Again, start by reading the FAQ.
