This gives me an idea for NewtonMP.com.

Once you've registered your Newton MP, I'll have a button to press that will
activate it on the website as "STOLEN" and one for "LOST". I'll then post
all of the Newton's with this designation on one page so that everyone can
either use the page directly or download the page on their Newton's. I can
also create a page for the user to print to take to the Police department.

Any other ideas?

Sorry to hear this, Woody. Might come in handy that I am a dedicated
fan of tracing Newtons that left my workbench. If the Newton 130
that was stolen from the car was the one I prepared for you, you
might want to update the police with the following info:

1) It has a MP120 screen (no antireflective coating)

2) The sticker in the battery compartment says IV6350106B5

3) If you remove the bottom part of the case and the ROM board,
   you will see a sticker that says FG-130-0010-1203. Of course
   the hardware section of the site in the signature will tell you
   how to get at the ROM board.

Please spread this info, dear list members, provided that the stolen
Newton is in fact the one I gruendelized (tm) (I like this term...)
which I would ask Woody to confirm to the list as soon as possible.
If it is, it won't hurt to paste this message into a new Newton
note to have it with you whenever you find a 130 for sale...

Sorry that I didn't post this earlier, I just returned from vacation
and am currently wading through NewtonTalk since March 15.
