Indeed unless it was Couch Fire. Do any of you remember that?

I always wanted to and almost did, then, if I remember right, they stopped support as I was about to. I always thought it was one of the slickest ideas, perfectly fitting the Newton. Of course now we have everything on our phones. But still I always loved the design, and I think I would still use my Newton for this if it were possible. Too bad they never released how the packages were made. I suspect they had a custom automated system that grabbed all the data then built the packages depending what channels the customer had. I think of what else could have been done with the system if it had ever been released.
