[NTLK] [ANN] Patch 71J059 - Year 2010 Fix

[robinson pereira]

Koeppen, I have to thank you a lot.
The Patch is great. I just get back to Newton at this month (found one just
like new) and your Patch save me.

But I have to offer you a challenge:
can you - with help of Paul Guyot - develope a PC/MAC software able to read
memory cards (CF, SD) saved on newton?

Thanks!
