- As "Jonathon/tmaehl@vax1.umkc.edu" pointed out under his posting titled
- "Corporate Newton users?", current Newton development (applications) is
- being kept in-house. That may be only temporary, especially in light of
- two facts:
-
- Companies like Motorola claim to be developing communication
- applications (Cell phone stuff?) for the Newton (MacWeek in the
- last 5-6 weeks or so.)
-
- Apple stated there would be some development system available that
- will be platform independent, specifically a Mac-based one, and a
- Windows version. (Also in MacWeek, same time frame.)
-
-
- I have asked Apple for information of said development system, and have
- received only a letter stating they received my letter. Frankly, I believe
- it's because they're probably swamped right now, and such requests are
- pretty low on the ol' priority scale. Nevertheless, if enough people voice
- their desires to have such a development system, I feel Apple will say
- something about it, perhaps around that magical mid-October day...
