...again, veering off topic, but did anyone who saw one happen to notice 
whether it still uses the quaint 'scrollbar' paradigm that the Newton simply 
didn't need? I ask because my Pocket PC has been designed to be virtually 
unusable in that in order to use the scrollbar, it involves totally obscuring 
the screen with the whole of your hand, so you don't know where to stop. 
Unless you're right handed, I suppose, but I wouldn't know about that sort of 
weirdness.
