[NTLK] iPhone is not the new Newton (was Re: New members)

[Tim Kaluza]

Hi there!

I do not have a iPhone or a "real" iPod (just a shuffle) But that is  
all I need.
My mobile phone is the cheapest i could get. (In this time they give  
you about two mobile phones for free when you buy some electronics  
over 100 Euro)

But I got some iPhones for "hacking" (SIM Free -  unlock).
Therefore I used them one - two days.
I didn't find a reason for using it. I like having a pen. It's in my  
eyes the better thing to do. You do not tip on your papers to write  
something you use a pen. When you're working the the Computer you are  
using a keyboard with ten fingers. I can also do that on the newton.

The only thing about what I'm thinking is how to make my display a bit  
brighter. Where can you get the White background the "white" (bit  
blue?) background replacement kid?

All the best!

Your's sincerely
Tim K.
