Ah... for so many reasons, I find the Newton is an excellent solution.

o Virus and Trojan free. Always will be.

o Text only (mostly) - exactly how I prefer my email.

o My Newton easily goes and stays with me.

o I'm handwriting into my MessagePad and not typing on someone else's computer.

o With one tap and/or a slide of my thumb, My Newton will close the screen and lock itself down in a subtle and secure fashion.

I really don't see any limitations what-so-ever. But then, I might be special. I am able to connect when I'm at home or work. I can retrieve and respond to personal or work related emails, notes, or projects. Using email, I can easily move information between my Newton and any various other computers I need to use.

Don't forget a good spell check & the best grammar checker there ever will be... Macintalk.

Mail V does that and more, with filters. Oh yes, you must see the filters!

I have encrypted security where and when I need it. The Fish on my Newton secures sensitive data. I also use a complete portable app solution installed on a Micro USB Hard Drive. Plug and Pull security!

P.S. If you can't read my signature try rotating your Newton ;-)
