eBay item 3030701253 (Ends Jun-21-03 14:40:39 PDT ) – 1 and a half Newton MessagePad 2x00s, loaded
What does 1 and a half MessagePads mean?
I have a complete Newton MessagePad 2000, with keyboard, serial dongle, faux leather case, power supply, and the serial cables to sync it up with your choice of desktop hardware.
I am the original owner so I know it all works.
I also have a MessagePad 2100 for parts: it does work, but the digitizer cable is broken, so you can’t input anything. But it is a 2100, so if you’re handy or know someone who is, you could swap the motherboards and have a 2100 with the 2000 motherboard as your spare. I also have a spare keyboard.
I also have a 2 Mb memory card and a 3 Com ethernet card, both fully operational (I used them just this morning to back everything up).
I am only selling this stuff to get it into someone’s hands who can use it. I’m not able to integrate it into my daily life and it seems a shame to have it collecting dust when someone could be getting some use out of it.
It’s still the best, perhaps the only true, PDA ever made, and it deserves better than to sit on a shelf.
