If the thought of busting open your Newton MessagePad to see what’s inside makes you squeamish, head to CNet’s “Cracking Open” photo tour. They show what an original Newton (OMP) looks like from the inside.
It’s like Grey’s Anatomy for the PDA world.

What’s inside a Newton MessagePad?
Flickr photog splorp posts a great X-ray view of the insides of a MessagePad, including what each component is and does.
I’m trying to teach myself more about what makes a Newton tick, and this is a big help.
A great big advocate for the MessagePad, and founder of the Newton Flickr pool, splorp is a true Newtfan in every sense of the word. He also takes on other Apple projects.
