Hello all!
I am a Newton MP100 owner who has just joined the ranks of the Zoomer owners
due to the $199 Radio Shack ZPDA closeout (couldn't pass that one up!!), and
have just started to consider buying some accessories. I am going to order
the Star PCMCIA modem from Surplus, and was just wondering if anyone out
there had tried the thing on a Newton MP100. The Newton modems are quite
expensive, so it would be great if I could use it on both machines. I guess
that I'll know whether or not it works in a few days anyway, but my curosity
has gotten the better of me. I really like the Zoomer more than the Newton
for most reasons, but like the speed of the Newton's processor. If Apple and
Casio had collaborated and put the Zoomer's os and software on the Newton
processor and screen....but then "if" is a really big word, isn't it!?!

Thanks for the help!
Take care all.
