Indeed!

In the limiting case ... a Newton is a MP3 player with an advanced GUI
interface for managing the playlist, scheduling etc, and 20G of storage.
(two 10G microdrives). Unlike, for example, the Treo, or Sonic Bllue's
Rio karma, the storage can be fast swapped. Only a few hand held MP3
players have the ability to end e-mail and browse the WWweb a well as
download music from the WWweb by mens of a WiFi connection.

YMMV.

Thank you Paul!
