Are you sitting well at this moment? I'd to pay about 12bucks, (2
years contract extension :-) It left me enough budget to get a 1GB
MemoryStick Duo Pro and an USB bluetooth dongle.

Okay, the Bluetooth software somehow manages it very well to
synchronize with either, Microsoft Outlook, Outlook Express or even
LotusNotes. They somehow implemented these three formats (I called it
"standards" - sorry :-) and it simply works surprisingly well.

Do you mean that you can send single vcards from Newton to the phone
and back as well? What about multiple sending and what's with cards
which have been changed on both platforms since the last synch?

Personally I could live with having my Newton for storing all names
and dates and use that as master. From the Newton I would like to
update the phone, that is everything on the phone is overwritten. If
and only if I record a new phone number on the phone or enter or shift
a date on the phone I could mark it an transfer it as soon as I'm
close to my Newton. Would that work with blunt et al?

Accessing the Internet with the Newton thru my phone is no issue for
me since I can probably stick with the phone only. The K750i has an
e-mail client too and WAP.

> Bluetooth is very easy on the batteries also, unlike WIFI.
I found the contrary with the phone. With bluetooth enabled the accu
showed a discharged quite quickly, unless in solely phone reception
mode where the K750i showed no discharge after one day.

> It looks like a pretty good camera also...
Doesn't the K750i represent the first phone with 2 megapixel autofocus came=
ra?
