I contacted Newt's development place in Vancouver last Summer, on behalf of a
commercial diver here, and got a fairly comprehensive pack on the suit from
them.
I thought I still had their phone number but I can't find it right now. Maybe
someone else on the list has it. If you can wait a couple of weeks (the person
I gave the stuff to is on holiday just now) I can get you a copy of the
brochures
they sent me. Or you could contact the place in Vancouver.

I'm sure there was also some stuff in Aquacorps on the Newtsuit a while ago.
