Convert! for the Newton Messagepad v 2.0

Just as Newton is a replacement for your diary, Convert! is a replacement for
the conversion tables usually found at the front.

Convert! 2.0 allows the user to enter and quickly convert between 107 common
(and not so common) metric and imperial units. Once the value has been written
into a field Convert! automatically calculates the corresponding units in the
table. You can then simply overwrite any field with a new value and have the
whole table recalculate.

This new version includes:
* complete rewrite from the ground up, much more efficient use of memory
* user definable settings (US/UK volumes, result accuracy).
* supports "whole unzit conversions" ie 300.6 cm = 3.28 yards or 3 yards, 0 ft,
10.35ins
* 70 new conversions including Pressure,Energy,Time,Power,Velocity,Computing
