Here's a mini-app (called newPage) which I wrote to help 
my Newton keep up with my note-taking sessions.

My Newton was beginning to frustrate me in that handwriting recognition 
is far too slow to keep up with conversation.  Ok, so I switched to 
digital ink.  Problem there was that once your digital ink note gets to 
about 2 or 3 screen sizes, it takes a long time for the Newton to accept 
it so that you can scroll down to the next empty screen.  (Also, if you 
get too long - like 4 or 5 pages - the note will be too long and the 
Newton will not accept it.)  Finally, the the gesture for creating a new 
page is often mis-interpreted as a word, causing even longer delays!!!

So, being a child of the 'gottaHaveaCoolGizmo' generation, I decided to 
write newPage instead of scraping my Newt.

newPage installs a button onto the Notes app's status bar which quickly 
creates a new page and scrolls you down one screen so that you're ready 
to keep on takin' notes.

Sounds like a bogus little application, but believe me, it's really 
improved the Newton's ability to keep up with my note-taking speed...

The app is free-ware, and I want to thank XXXXXXXX for his posting which 
pointed me to KeyboardChicken (I would have never guessed that one) - and 
to Stephen Dohrmann on AOL for posting End n' Back which proved to me that 
you COULD hack the Notes app...
