Try the following:
Press the power switch. While keeping it pressed, press the reset switch,
hold it for two seconds and release it. A message will appear asking
you something like "Do you really want to erase ...". Release the power switch.
Tap yes (don't worry, nothing will happen yet). Another message will
appear saying "All your data will be lost, do you really blabla blabla..."
Tap "No" for the second message. The Newton will do a restart, keeping
your data intact.
If this doesn't help, could it be that the Notepad isn't your backdrop
application anymore? In that case you should be able to get at the notes
by tapping "Notes" in the Extras folder.
