One of the living legends of Newton community lives near Hamburg/Germany, he used to service mine back in the day when I was using it 24/7. Mine still works ok, I used to abuse the backlight (must have replaced it a couple of times).

I still got the original one bought in '94. Got it out 3 month ago and was still impresst by the concept, even though the first one was too slow and not much of use in daily life.
Realy had a Star Trek feel to it in '94. |

ditto,
I got mine (MP2100) in '97 when handwriting recognition was working fine. I still find Larry Yeager's work impressive, I'm a tablet-type and this technology still lives under MacOS X's Ink.

Great!
A. Does it still exist in OS X 10.5? B. Are there any OSx86 compatable input devices? |

oh yeah!
SysPrefs.jpgink.jpg I guess any MacOS-compatible wacom would play nice with the hacks (unless there're generic usb issues on a particular mobo). Here's the Wireless model working as it should on my hack: wacom.jpg Most people are so lazy, they don't even exercise good judgement!
