This review is from: Newton's Law: A Digital Nomad's Guide (Paperback)

The Newton was breakthrough technology for Apple, and the device was designed to be highly user-friendly. Apple's manuals, "Getting Started" card, and introductory video were good, but some of the features (notably handwriting recognition) were frustrating to master. "Newton's Law" goes beyond the Apple User's Guide in providing much more thorough tips and instruction. In addition, for users or interested readers there is a wealth of background technology information which provides an excellent explanation of how Newton works.

This book is highly recommended for anyone who wants to know more about this fascinating Personal Digital Assistant which still has loyal users and user groups throughout the world.
