Death of Newton

We've mentioned the death of Newton before but Frank Wojcik sent us not one, not two, but three articles about the little PDA that couldn't. But Eric Harlow wrote in with a cool idea: why not have apple release all the specs and code. GPL it. Open it totally up. Geeks would scoop up the leftover newtons and maybe code cool stuff for it. Apple can't afford to maintain newton- why not let the world take a stab at it- there was a ton of cool technology in those little boxes, it would be nice to take advantage of it.
