[NTLK] Lecture backgrounds

I'll be speaking on the WWNC (World Wide Newton Conference for those
who didn't know this yet) and the subject will be the Newton OS and
it's interface, both on itself and relation to other OS's.
All this in a vague hope that somebody somewhere might get the hint and
will realize how good the Newton OS actually is.
I'll be collecting and reading all over the web and was wondering if
anybody would have some good links, the kind I'm looking for is for
instance http://homepage.mac.com/larryy/larryy/ANHR.html
Anything like this is very welcome!
Another example might be the following: I read somewhere that Apple in
the mid-eighties deliberately removed the arrow keys from the keyboard
when realizing that people just weren't going to use the mouse because
it was too alien to them.
Any link to a good analysis of Palm OS, Windows CE, PocketPC etc. also
appreciated.

Because I'll be off list soon because I'm gone from the 5th of July
until the 7th of August please cc all to my private email:
rbenschop_at_telebyte.nl

TIA

Robert Benschop
