Re: [NTLK] One of you knows the answer....

I have had two newtons stolen, luckily neither was my personal unit
with my notes, address book and schedule. And neither match your
description.
If you aquired a locked Newton that may have once been someone's PDA
you should either contact the person identified as the owner on the
password screen or the seller. If neither of these is possible then
destroy their data via a brainwipe.
There are few if any applications that you cannot get freely these
days and may of the registered ones are keyed to your name.

If it is your own data and you forgot then if you search hard enough
you will find what you are looking for.
