Hi ApplefanBE,

I've got pretty much one of every main model released by Apple (and some that weren't):

Newton Notepad (pre-release model)
Newton MessagePad OMP
Newton MessagePad 100
Newton MessagePad 110
Newton MessagePad 110 - Clear Developer Unit
Newton MessagePad 120
Newton MessagePad 130
Newton MessagePad 2000
Newton MessagePad 2100
Newton eMate 300

I'd love to get a MP2100 DVT unit....

I've got pictures of most of these on Newton collection page.

Hello Australia !

Nice collection you've got there ... Impressive :-)

I got mine of off ebay a year ago in a leather case with the modem, pager card and several memory cards.

Cool!

I don't have the pager card.

But I did/do have a Nokia GSM interface card for my old Nokia 2110e. Back in it's day it was great to do email and web on the Newton - but rather slow at 9600 baud (mind you the iPhone still isn't much faster.....yet!)

I also played with the Nokia Phonecard 2 back then, but never got it to work on my phone network with the Newton.

I've got a Newton MessagePad 120, 2000 and an eMate 300. All of them were eBay bargains bought within the last couple of years. There is a picture of my 120 and 2000 in my photos section.

Wow! I think macdownunder (a.k.a. J.D.) has us all beat! Here's what I have:

Newton MessagePad 100 x 2
Newton MessagePad 110
Newton MessagePad 120
Newton MessagePad 130
Newton MessagePad 2000
Newton MessagePad 2100
Newton eMate 300

I bought them new when they were released starting with the 120 and ending with the 2100, and I'm still waiting for the Newton MessagePad 2200 or whatever you would call a cross between a MessagPad, an iPhone, and a MacBook.

I've got a Newton MesagePad 120 and an eMate 300 which recently developed a broken hinge. It still works, you just have to be careful with it.

James, how about the ModBook...? You could even run a Newton emulator. I think there's one available now.
