I promise I will get some pictures up this week. I bought the unit on
eBay from a fellow who worked at Everchanging, the company that created
FilePad, Hippocrates, and PowerForms for the Newton. Apparently they had
been sent the prototype by Apple at one time, and it was just lying
around. Apple never asked for the unit back.
