The Newton was more of Palm like organizer, it may have just been slightly ahead of it's time. I think they had some problems with handwriting recognition and they were thicker than the the Palm products, making them more of a briefcase portable rather than a shirt pocket one. They were discontinued in the late 90s a couple of years later everyone was selling those devices.
