The University Art Museum at the University of California, Berkely,  uses
Newtons as guiding tools, and you can have a textual or audio description,
together with other information about the author, critics etc.
A similar system is used also somewhere at the Smithsonian, I think.
The company that developed the system is called Visible Interactive
(415.433.7781, in SF).

I am thinking of using Newtons later in the future in the new science
center in Amsterdam, also.
