I?m not sure if it is the same, but NewtonSales have something similar in their offer: http://www.newtonsales.com/sbi.htm <http://www.newtonsales.com/sbi.htm>

NewtonSales aside, the text of their upgrade leads talks about ?flipping the switch? which leads me to believe that it is not as advanced or as integrated as the Implant 2000.

It seems to be more along the lines of this upgrade:

I was following the discussion about QuickView and I have this running on my PB G3, so I opened the Newton Programmers Guide 2.1 in this format (already available in PDF) and printed the entire contents to a postscript file, converted to PDF.

The file is at this link:
http://www.inventors-emporium.co.uk/files/NPG-%202.1%20OS%20Addendum.pdf

So it is possible to get useful files from this qv file format but the links are not active. However, it might be useful intermediary step in generating something more usable.

I?ll keep fiddling.

Reminded once again how nice (and fast) those document viewers were.

Jeff, which IRC network?

A few years ago I registered #newtonscript on freenode and I feel like
there was one person who used to join that who might have registered
#newtontalk. Unfortunately, I don't think I have my IRC logs anymore to see
who the user might have been.

Around that time I also found a couple people were still in #newton on
EFnet, though had log since stopped using Newtons or discussing them.

Morgan,

Thanks for the info.  It's good to have this in the mailing list
archives, especially barring any formal documentation.

I'm on Freenode and am currently roosting in #newton, #newtontalk, and
now #newtonscript for no particularly good reason. :-)
