Some people have asked me, what is an Apple Newton MessagePad, and which MessagePad model am I currently using? (I assume these aren’t the same people asking me these questions.) Well The Apple Newton, or simply Newton, is an early line of personal digital assistants developed, manufactured and marketed by Apple Computer. As for which Newton Newton MessagePad I am using now? well that would have to be the MessagePad 130, and not the 2100 which is depicted as the theme for this web site. I hope to get one of those soon… (I choose 2100 as the theme for this site because it is the most recognizable by Newton aficionados.)
