Hello all,

Tomorrow I receive my first Newton, a MessagePad 2000, but how do I know whether I have a German or US version of it?

Thanks in advance

Well, you tell by whichever language it's using. English= USA and German=German

Thank you!

There might. But AFAIK that's the way.

It is. And fellow 68kmla soldiers broke my hopes of easy language switching on Newtons a few weeks ago... :-/

By the way, judging by your use of an acute accent on your pseudo, are you a french speaker? Te serais-tu fait avoir comme moi en héritant d'un Newton allemand? :beige:
