Speaking of the VR3, the following interesting tidbit was posted onto
comp.sys.newton.misc today:

      
   The special VR3 developer units, appropriately dubbed the "VR3              
   Developer Edition," will come equipped with 16MB of internal Flash          
   memory instead of the usual 2-8MB Flash, and will also have 8MB of RAM      
   memory.  The VR3 is based on a 66MHz 32-bit NEC VR4181 MIPS                 
   system-on-chip processor. For display, it has a 240 x 160 pixel             
   monochrome LCD touch screen with 16-level gray-scale and a 3.25" x          
   2.25" viewable area.                                                        
                                                                                                                                                        
   The VR3 Developer Edition which, according to Brantley, is "a $249          
   value," is being made available to Agenda Developer Program members for     
   "just $179" (plus applicable tax and shipping).

ANyway, great work, Jay!
