You might want to check into the Netgear MR314!

It's on sale until October 31st at Amazon.com for $79.99!!!

Here is the link...

It supports appletalk, but I haven't tested it myself. You could research to
findout if it supports the right kind of Appletalk. Also see if it bridges
it across between the wired and wireless networks (Ithink it might).

I posting a sepprate question tot he list right now to ask if anyone else
can confirm that this works with a Newton.
