Special showing by Danger’s Hiptop on Arrested Development. Such an intelligent show would certainly use such an intelligently designed phone.

Well it turns out that Danger’s Hiptop is such a closed system that they have an emulator (refered to as the Hiptop Simulator) which allows for development without a Sidekick even. Quite a few websites have information about setting up Danger’s simulator (which can be downloaded from Danger’s developer depot). Once the Simulator is installed [...]

When you mention eBook’s don’t forget about the Newton. Turns out Cory Doctorow from the EFF made sure to point out the Newton is still viable; especially when it comes to eBooks (check here, here, and here).

Just sending this blog entry out of my Simulator. After a simple change I have Bloggy running like a champ. Thanks AcidAngel. Maybe one day I’ll have something put together that you’ll thank me for.

Looks like 2010 isn’t the end of the Newton, seems like in the mid 22nd century they are using Newton(like) devices. Well, once you change a blue to green at least.
Pretty soon geeking out on the Newton won’t be syncing information through a built-in Bluetooth connection, running a few experiments using eProbe, or even playing [...]

I’d like to extend a heartfelt thanks to the people who voted for me over at This Old Newt but I still need your help. If you’ve ever used Rush Hour (as it appears is one of the more popular programs of mine) then do both of us a favor and add another vote for [...]

An excellent idea, would we love the Newton as much if they were still around? If everyone had one would we just sit around and bash it much like those Mac fanatics.
An excellent read at The Guardian for anyone who might be interested. Lots of great insight into the rumored sub-$500 dollar mac to be [...]

Okay, so the Newton lives through Einstein? Now if I just felt as though I had a “fast” mac. If anyone has gotten Einstein running care to leave a comment about their system specs?
Thanks goes out to Paul Guyot for the development and recent screenshots of this amazing feat of Newton history.

Could you show some support for my labours of love? By that I mean This Old Newt has started their voting for the 2004 Newtie Awards. I’m not asking for a win, I’m just asking for some small recognition. Personally if I weren’t myself I would have voted for Newtendo but I do love myself [...]

Looks like a review of something yet again compared to a Newton, thanks to The Register for the review.
The Type U is about the size of that ill-fated PDA pioneer, Apple’s Newton MessagePad. Its exact dimensions are 16.7 x 11 x 2.8cm, with a weight of 550g.
You can read the remainder of the review [...]

How long has it been since my last post? Ages, unfortunately the reason behind the long wait is my latest gadget, the Danger Hiptop, also known as the T-Mobile Sidekick. Not exactly a replacement for the Newton but I’m trying to make it fit the same hole that my Newton filled.
Hiptop PROS vs. Newton: [...]

As strange as it may seem I was unable to find a USB cable that would fit the sidekick. It uses the same cable as a Palm Tungsten E (the cable is a USB A Male/Mini B 5-pin) as well as quite a few other digital devices. What once was free with the original Sidekick [...]

This is the first Sidekick that I’ve owned it’s even my first time with T-Mobile. I’m very excited to jump in on the ground floor of Danger’s latest creation. I’ve used an Apple Newton for the past several years religiously and have decided that I want to try a more current piece of technology. I’ll [...]

Well, I think that I’ve decided on newtonscribe.com for the new site name. I just want to make it a site name that describes what the site actually is instead of what I purchased on a spur of the moment choice at the register.com website. I’ll start the process this weekend (since I’ll have a [...]

I want to release my latest rewrite of the Newtonscript tutorial but before I do I am thinking about a more Newton sounding name than dumbstart. Which isn’t Newton related at all. I’m leaning toward Newtonscripture, or Newtonscriptor, since I would like to base a lot of my site on the Newtonscript programs that I [...]
