Normally it is not the negative contact (which is connected
to the spring that ejects the battery pack) that makes
an unreliable connection, but the positive contact. This
fellow tends to be bent towards the main logic board over
time and contact becomes unreliable.
I hate to ask this, but...
You ARE sure you do not have some weird recurring events
that wake your Newton up, aren't you?
