Did you read about people experiencing bluetooth on their MessagePads
and are curios to know more about and maybe to experience it yourself
too?

All right, this is a post made exacly for you! ^_^

First you'll need the correct bluetooth pc card (technically called
"pcmcia")
plus the coolest software available: "BLUNT".

  - About hardware (the above mentioned bluetooth pcmcia):
Newton compatible pcmcia cards are a bit hard to find in U.S.
but in Germany there's a store which sells Newton compatible
bluetooth adapters at cheap,
and the seller talks english, ship overseas, and also has an eBay
store called "guru2000".
It's the biggest and cheapest reseller available anywhere actually i
think.
I bought from him and had a friendly but professional response.

Only cons: no paypal.
[Bank transfer is the most common in Germany.]

Here are a couple of links to guru2000 eBay auctions:

  - About software:
Start from the WikiWikiNewt: http://tinyurl.com/fzlhy
or go directly to Blunt's website: http://40hz.org/Blunt/

Consider that once you bought a Pico Pcmcia,
installing Blunt, pairing with your desktop and installing packages
wirelessly
will be easier than you'd think! You will transfer notes within
seconds too!

If you have doubt about eBay,
i can be of help on managing a redirect service from Europe to U.S.
obviously for free.

Consider that if i could manage to buy in quantity from the seller
(say 8-10 units)
as you can imagine we would get cheaper unit and shipping cost.

If anybody is interested, please just drop me a line.

  - Some notes:

Most of you really do not know who i am and why i should offer such
help for free.
[I comprehend at all people who will doubt on the truth in my
offering here.]

First reason is that i got the same help time ago, in this same place.

Then i could add that i just would want to see the most of the people
get in touch with the Newton enanchements available as for today.

Hope some friends will get in touch here to leave some feedback.

Kind regards,

Adriano Angelillis
