I can summarize it in a few words -- the Newton OS is a thoroughly object
oriented, dynamic environment, with an immense library of preexisting
objects that can be reused in any of your own applications. Due to the
environment, all applications can easily interact, and the Intelligent
Assistant can easily be extended to help the user manage any new types of
information or functionality that you add.
