Apple halts development at its Newton handheld unit Friday February 27, 5:45 pm Eastern Time CUPERTINO, Calif., Feb 27 (Reuters) - Apple Computer Inc. said on Friday it will stop development work on the Newton handheld computer and the eMate 300 laptop for kids, another step to redirect its resources to its Macintosh computers. Apple said it will continue to market and sell its current inventory of the Newton and eMate machines and will continue to provide technical support to customers and developers. What's more, 3Com Corp. introduced its version of a handheld computer, dubbed the Palm Pilot, in 1996. Within a year, the device grabbed 51 percent of the market, partly at the expense of Newton, according to market researcher Dataquest. biz.yahoo.com o~~~ O
