"Defying Gravity" was a book that was written about the creation of
Newon. Always wanted to read it since I heard a lot about it.

Subject: [NTLK] Newton historical sources needed
Hi all!
I am taking a class on IT innovation, and I think that my semester
project is a case analysis on something innovative.
I was considering doing something on the newton. The newton was
innovative in its own right, but it also inspired other companies
(Palm, Microsoft, Psion, Nokia, SonyEricsson, Sony, etc) and lets not
forget the innovations that still occur within the NewtonTalk community.
I was wondering if anyone knows of primary and secondary sources that
I can tap into to get information on the development of the newton
(hardware, software, marketing, competing products, overall failure,
rebirth, etc).
Anything that is a book, magazine article, developer's personal
memoirs/blog, war-stories of people involved (many of us here and
fresh off WWNC '07)
Also, if anyone has comparative photos of Newton v. UMPC and Newton
v. iPhone - that would be super fantastic!
Any help is greatly appreciated :-)
