Does anyone know of a units converter for the Internet Tablet? You know, one that does metric to imperial and all that other jazz? It was one of the more useful applets on my Newton.

I realize this is an old thread, but I was also looking for a "unit converter" application that I could run offline. Since OS2008 finally supports Flash applications, I went searching again, and I found one!
Flash Unit Converter
The zip archive has both the .html and .swf file, but you really only need the .swf file. Place "unit_conv.swf" somewhere accessible by the File Manager, and open it. It should automatically open in a new browser window. It's not the most full-featured unit converter around, but it does seem to work okay.
I'm still hoping that somebody creates a hildonized unit converter. MathJinni has a tab for "Unit Conv", but it says "Coming soon!". Oh well.
