<<Since the Newton OS (as opposed to the Mac OS) hasn't had licensees yet,>> Actually, both Sharp and Motorola have sold Newton OS based devices in the past. Sharp was manufacturing the MessagePad for Apple, and basically just rebranded and sold it at slightly cheaper price. Motorola added wireless and raised the cost a couple hundred. I don't think either were what one would consider sucessful. I wonder what happend to those arrangments. Jon Bird
