This is actually a relevant thread. If you look at all the free help offered on NTLK list over the years... in relation to all that free help in the Newton community, Newton developers still in existence that charge for their software are a tad greedy.

Browsing on the 1400 when connecting with an Ethernet card via the PC Card slot is always going to be slow, because it is a 16 bit card cage. I know there is an internal ethernet option and I believe that is the fastest way, but not wireless. The PowerBook Wallstreet is much faster in this...

Too bad! You know where to find us if you change your mind... Thanks.

Yes and no. It is worth what the market is willing to pay for it. And in this economy... And if people need money...

These upgrade cards, their speeds, the differences between them, etc. is probably the most well documented of the powerbook upgrades out there. Compares Sonnet's upgrade cards: http://macspeedzone.com/archive/5.0/bymac/app/PBK14_166Oct00.html User experiences on the Vimage - note the reports...

I know this is a bit off topic, but the 233 Vimage G3 upgrade, IMHO, is not worth the effort. It runs too hot and bleeds the battery. All the best.

Sometimes it can be quirky. So some restarts. Make sure TCP/IP is set to your WAVELAN card, and that you are connecting via DCHP. Set AppleTalk to infrared just to mitigate any interference with your ethernet connection. Restart several times. If it just won't work, download the Orinoco 7.2...

I should correct the above: this is a 802.11b card, not g.

Hi: Yes, the card I used works under Classic Mac, even with Apple's stock Airport software. It even does 128 bit encryption under OS 9.x.x How did I find it? I looked and researched very hard. The following instructions tells you everything you need to know, even the model number of the...

The wifi card will work under OS X, and it is 802.11g - it's an OEM Orinoco, a generic version of Apple's Airport Card used in their laptops. I have also installed the wifi into a Newton and it works great. No problems with cardbus cards from my end either, works perfectly. Glad you enjoyed...

It WILL work. Make sure you install the latest Airport 2.0.4 http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=120120

Ok, the video is in reference to: 1. Yuplan keyboard install 2. 96 MB RAM install 3. CardBus hack 4. Internal Wifi installation Exciting? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R8HPspNjHVw

Mail is going rough for me right now. I am getting help from NTLK, and that has been great. I can't say enough good things about Ron Parker and Simon Bell. It does not like Yahoo or Gmail, although US based Yahoo Plus should work. Try Mail V.

Join NTLK list As for advice, the Newton is great, but takes a LONG time and a lot of patience to learn and get working properly. Once we have a proper knowledgebase site working, that clearly details how to get up and running, it will take some time until you have conquered the device.

Ya, running from a PC Card slot can be a great solution... however, if your machine is not cardbus compliant, the 16 bit data path will slow everything down. If you can, get an Extreme III or IV Sandisk card.

Ya, me too. Years back you would see the odd one on Ebay, like twice a year, now, nothing. I check all the time.

Oh PowerBook 550c, where art thou? Nobody even discusses you on this forum... Anyone remember the coveted PowerBook 550c? It is "the" most rare PowerBook of any, only released in very, very small numbers in Japan. It ran a full 68040 processor with integrated FPU, whereas all other 500...

Checked my website, and here is what it says: Yes. 4 upgrade chips were made for the 500 series PowerBooks. Newer Technologies made 3 upgrade chips for the 500 series PowerBooks (1) NUpowr 183mhz PowerPC® chip with 128K of L2 cache (Price: NA. Availability: NA) (2) NUpowr 167 PowerPC® 603e chip...

beachycove: Giving up so soon? I have installed a CF Card in a 5300ce and a 1400c with the addonics CF-ATA adapter and after 6 months of use on each, no problems. Now, I know these aren't the infamously fussy 2400c, which itself, is almost as fussy as the PowerBook Wallstreet, but perhaps you...
