        Does that utility handle the eclipses though?

Woohoo! Lucky for me my 120/2.0 is still in service, so I got to see
the eclipse easter egg :D

(FYI: This easter egg is only on the 120/2.0 and 130 models... aren't
you glad you held onto yours? :)

And for those of you who don't know: in the NOS 2.0 ROM, the programmers
added an easter egg: on the day of every solar eclipse around the world
up to... 2010, the first time you turn your Newton on that day you will
be treated to an animation of a solar eclipse on the splash screen.
