Comment on Remembering Apple’s Newton, 30 years onparent

Comments

I developed NewtFTP because wireless cards were just starting to appear, the PM100D cellular cards and the early 802.11 WiFi. FTP was the most popular way at that time to distribute application packages and files.

It felt like living in the future walking down the street in ‘96 with my newton and accessing the internet!
