Now, now, keep it down. I hate to admit, I too have been thinking about the possibility of writing a
mouse driver for my eMate as well. I'm still trying to get my had around NewtonScript though but I
do see what Ladd's is talking about. There are times that a mouse, believe it or not, just seems
like a natural extension for the emate especially on my cluttered desk. My emate is about 3 feet
away and I have to keep reaching for the screen . Unlike the other Newton's that you can hold in one
hand.
