No cons, get one ;) - a MP2100 is best and the worn ones from J&K sales
are quite cheap and usually in good enough shape.

Get the NewtonDev.sit archive from UNNA, it should contain everything
you need. Then, try some of the sample code, read the Programmer's
Guide and you should be all set. In addition to that, "Programming for
the Newton using Macintosh" is on UNNA in a file named
ProgNewtUsingMac.zip, it is an excellent tutorial.
