C. Navarro,
Laying hands on an etext of NT manuscripts may be a bit of a chore.
However, printed texts are available. For example:
The Complete Text of the Earliest New Testament Manuscripts
Edited by Philip W. Comfort & David P. Barrett
CBD Price: 24.95
I think this book only contains the papyri. So if you want to see the
Uncials you will have to go to other sources. There was a paper back
edition of Codex Bezae edited by Scrivener (sp?) running around a while
ago, may still be in print.
Also, you could always rely on the apparatus in NA27 which is what most
people do.
