On the Newton in 2009

CNet UK has pitted the Newton against the iPhone and the Newton won:

The Newton may be old and dusty, but it still shows the young pretenders a thing or too. The iPhone is a superior device in many ways, we’ll admit, but when it comes to sheer innovation, the Apple Newton MessagePad is a true pioneer. Long live the king.

On a related note: If you haven’t run the appropriate 2010 patch on your device, the time is now.
