Hey DJV,

At last I've had a chance to run through your Moron's Manual - and
suggest you write an Absolute Moron's Manual - because it doesn't work
for my Newt.
Same problems as before:

I've installed all the packages - BluntMP2x00US.pkg; Bluetooth
Setup.pkg; NIE Nitro & Blunt Support module and Neo;
I've launched the Bluetooth Setup application and set the device name,
the card location and experimented with different communication speeds
and different card slots.
When I test the card it still says 'No card found' (although the light
on the Pico card comes on).

When I reboot the bluetooth card lights up - - and the Newt says a
communication card has been inserted. When I test the card the Newt
gives the same message 'No card found'

Using the Newt's in box receive function - I continue to have some
success with, on average, two out of every three attempts to download a
file! Odd!

Anyone interested in a slightly used Pico card - actually I'm a bit
over the whole Newton system - Anyone interested in a Newt 2000 with
the lot - all original packaging, manuals, leather case, modem,
ethernet, bluetooth(!) and all original software???

Cheers,

Rob
