aah, come on, eric - i use the newt for googling and mailing on a daily
basis, its OK. i pay about $2/Mb, which is not cheap, yet not over the
limit for what im ready to pay.

what is really lacking is a good, up to date link page with good
newton-friendly services. and like victor pointed out - spamassasin!
also, a full IMAP folders support im simplemail wouldnt hurt.

yep, it happens occasionally, but if youre OK with mainly sending mail
and using simple services lika google and RSS, the newt is fine.
