well the subject name is an abscure refrence to an Apple newton commercial called, and containing the phrase "Where is Newton?"

The acutal subject refers to the fact that there is no Newton forum...

in other words "Wheres Newton [Fourm]"

I apologize for the inconvinence

Barney-

Perhaps sine was being too general. The Newton was a hand-held device (similar to Palm) that Apple produced several years ago. The product line was scraped when Steve Jobs joined Apple.

namannik is abolutely correct...

Although Newton is gone, it truely is not dead. My view, (an many other Newt owners) is that Newton is STILL the best, most usable, and powerful (for the price) handheld available. I own a MessagePad 130, and it kicks the snot out of my friends' Palms.
Of course, there are not many Newt users out there, but I beleive it should be added to help keep the Apple Newton community together.
