        We recently stumbled into a good deal on a n770 which will work
perfectly for a business project my wife has which *requires* a
handheld with a portable color screen--no Newton options here. I've
been tempted to pick one up myself, and transfer files between my
Newton and it via a Bluetooth card in the Newton (Hi, Adriano!). (I
could also use the Nokia to go to SSL sites the Newton can't open.)
Has anyone tried connecting the Newton to the Nokia via Bluetooth?
If I did, what software would I need to use?

        On another front I'd like to use my Microwriter with both my Newton
and the Nokia if I get one. Since the Microwriter is 4800 baud 8/N/1
the easiest way to connect to both devices might be to use a serial-
to-Bluetooth dongle. Has anyone here ever played with one of these?
Thanks!
