Apple Newton

In a fit of creativity tonight, I drew an Apple Newton; the PDA.
If you're interested, it's a MessagePad, now called the "MessagePad 
Classic" (MPC) or "Original MessagePad" (OMP) depending if the owner has 
sprung for the US$129 upgrade from Apple.  I don't own one myself, instead 
I have a Sharp Expertpad, which is the same thing in a slightly different 
case and it's an amazing toy.

Hi Everyone,

in the past I just wrote some comments or I posted pics from other people
when someone asked for them. And I told you that I won't start with any
own work. But nobody made a small computer or somthing similar like a
Newton Massege Pad. So HAD to try on my own.
                       ^^^^^^^
My question: can anybody help me with the 3-D Effect on the right side and
with the little curves under the screen of the Newton. I looked so many
times at your work, but the only way i saw was just to make:

      -.________.- for a very low curve like the Newton has. Hmmm :-|

I send you a Photo (not very good :-( ) with this e-mail where you can
have a look at a MP120.

Thanks in advance for your regard.
