<<I hope the consumer portable is under $500-something like a cool and powerful PDA.>> Newton LC was supposed to be a small handheld about the size of a Palm Pilot. I would guess that to be in the $400 to $500 range. Of course, they canned it before production. I hear you can get some discounts leather cases with the Newton logo on them with LC embossed on them. I hope they are taking some of the manufacturing lessons there and applying to the consumer portable. -Bill_H
