Huh?

By Becky Haluska

On an Apple MessagePad 120 with the Newton 2.0 OS the number of fax messages you can receive and the maximum size of those fax documents vary depending on two factors.

Free Heap Space

This is the amount of memory available to the system software to run the Newton. It will determine how large in size the page can be. On average, a fax page takes about 40 KB.

If you have trouble receiving a fax, try disabling some of the packages on your Newton MessagePad.

Available Storage Space:

This is the amount of memory you have available on the internal store or a PC card, if you have one. This determines the number of pages you can receive.
