Welcome to the Personal Media 1.5 Demo. 
 
This is a fully working demo of  Personal Media Version 1.5 from Gaia
Software. This is the latest upgrade (release Sept. 23 1995) to
Gaia's Personal Media product for the Apple's Newton Message Pads and
Motorola Marco hand held computers.  
 
Requirements: 
 
o Apple Newton MessagePad 100, 110, 120 running Newton OS 1.3. Or  a
Motorola Marco running 1.0.3. (Marco users with version 1.0.2 should
obtain the 1.0.2a patch from Motorola at 1-800-399-7421 or 
wdghelp@email.mot.com). 

o 405K of free space available on the store where you install Personal
Media. (MP 100 users will require a PCMCIA SRAM of Flash memory card
to use the demo). 

o Approximately 40K of free heap space available to use Personal Media. 
 
Limitations: 

o This demonstration version of Personal Media times out 30 days after
it is first used. Your data remains intact and will be available if
you choose to purchase Personal Media. 

o This demonstration version has an absolute usage limit of Dec. 31
1995 after which it will no longer function. 
 
New features and bug fixes in Personal Media 1.5 
 
o Personal Media notepads now support handwriting translation. Add
recognition toggle is now available at the lower left (just next to
the scaling control) of the page. You can use mixed ink, text, and
shapes on the notepads. 

o Notepads now support the standard Newton "scrub" gesture for deletion. 

o Personal Media notepads now fully support Newton compatible ink.
This improves compatibility with the built in notes scroll as well as

other Newton Applications.  This also makes a significant improvement
in heap space usage from notepads. 

o Personal Media will now search document contents when the Newton's
Find button is used (previously we just search document titles). 

o You can now add contacts and edit contacts information (i.e. names)
without leaving Personal Media. 

o The way in which Personal Media interacts with the Newton's built
in "in box" and "out box" has been changed to improve performance and
reduce user confusion.

o "PM Intro" is a Newton book that provides additional information on
how to use Personal Media.
