Hi Sean,
I haven't talked to you since I hunted you down during the Great NewtonTalk
Outages. Yes, your brainchild keeps going, well over 1000 members (~1400, I
think). Only a few of the really old-timers still around, but a BUNCH of
newer converts. One of the old-timers (Victor Rehorst) picked up the list
when PN fumbled, and we have had few issues since.
So...what are you using for a PDA these days, if not the Newton? And, if
you are interested in selling your Newtons, offer them here first, if you
would (keep them in the "family" ;) ).
Take care!
Regards,
Gary

Subject: [NTLK] Hello from the former List Dad
Newtontalkers -
I was searching the web this morning and I saw that my old NewtonTalk
community appears to still be active.
For those that remember me (and those that don't), I was the founder of
NewtonTalk many years ago when Apple was still an active PDA developer. I
was the first ListDad for 2-3 years. My name is Sean O'Shaughnessey.
I am very happy that there are people out there that still get value out of
this list. If you remember me, drop me a note to my regular email address
soshaughnessey yahoo com (delete the spaces and add appropriate . @). I
won't maintain my subscription to Newtontalk for very long since I no longer
use a Newton. I am still mad at Steve Jobs for killing the best PDA ever
built - Palm and Wince still don't hold a candle to it.
I still have my old 100, 110, 130, and 2100 in a closet somewhere. Is there
a market for used Newtons? I suppose I should check eBay.
Good luck to everyone. Thank you for keeping my vision alive beyond my
wildest dreams.
Sean
