I decided to get a Newton because I was looking for another type of PDA. I started out with a Sharp OZ (the first model), tried a Zoomer, then the Palm, A Geofox (a PSION OS in a clamshell body) and moved into the WindowsCE and PocketPC arena and back to a Sony Clie.
Over the past 10 years I have been an editor and author of the now closed website FoxPop.
I met someone about 5 years ago that was using a Newton and just raved about it but I did not have any time to really try it. Thus the other day I was get frustrated with my Clie - I don't like the why the address book is laid out and I really don't like the "graffitti", also I have always felt the screen was too small ....And then I remembered what I heard about the newton and decided to give it a try.
So thats my story.

I too think it's cool people as of late seem to be rediscovering the
Newton. But I am curious.... what made these people decide to purchase
a Newton?
