This package uses IrDA(TM) compliant standards. IrDA(TM) is anindustrial standard for infrared wireless communication, and most laptops madeafter January 1996 are equipped with an IrDA(TM) compliant infraredtransceiver. Infrared ports let you communicate with printers, modems, faxmachines, LANs, and other laptops or PDAs. Speed ranges from 2400bps to 4Mbps. The Linux/IrDA stack supports IrLAP, IrLMP, IrIAS, IrIAP, IrLPT, IrCOMM, IrOBEX, and IrLAN. Several of the protocols are implemented as both clients and servers. There is also support for multiple IrLAP connections, via several IrDA(TM) devices at once. The Linux/IrDA project started at the end of 1997 and its status is still experimental, so please don't expect every feature working straight.

  • Why Did Apple Kill Newton?
    From Pen Computing Magazine #22, June 1998 Why Did Apple Kill Newton? ©Copyright 1998 David MacNeill Early Friday morning, February 27, 1998, Apple Computer made official what the Newton cognoscenti had strongly suspected for six months: the Newton handheld computing platform was dead. The rather terse press release gave the basic facts: Apple will cease all Newton OS hardware and software development, no more products will be made after the existing stock is depleted, and Apple will continue to provide support to users. Brief mention was made of development of a new low-cost Mac OS-based mobile device in the future, but no details were offered. But the most galling omission was the lack of an answer to the question on the minds of hundreds of thousands of shocked, angry Newton owners: Why? Before I attempt to answer this question, let’s take a quick tour of the mercurial five-year career of Newton. This will serve to prepare you for the several explanations we will be considering. A brief history of Newton During its turbulent five-year life, Newton technology was close to death several times, yet always managed to survive. Department heads came and went, but the essential concept of the personal digital assistant (PDA) was too compelling to die easily: A small, inexpensive, pen-based computing device that would accompany you everywhere, and that would learn enough about you to make informed assumptions about how to help you keep track of the myriad little bits of information we all must carry. It would be simple enough for anyone to use, a true computer for the rest of us.
