I love the idea of both, and do own a Newton (I bought used from somebody 
else who gave up on it...)   But the Newton was ballyhooed at a time when 
the Mac itself was proving a flaccid performance competitor to the 
Windows PC.  And Pippin is being touted as a game machine, using the Mac 
OS which has been accused as being a toy... I'll probably buy one, but I 
do hope that Apple's priorities don't cost the main concerns of the company.

On a related note, it's the same Pippin mentality that seems to be 
pushing Kaleida's ScriptX as a game creation environment rather than a 
powerful application language, which it truly seems to be.

Anyway, blah...
