[NTLK] MessagePad 120 - how do I wipe out the "login" password?

Hi all,
I just got a MP120 from a technology recycler on eBay - but it had a
password on it. So how do I get around it so I can actually use it?! It
comes up with the previous owner's name and number (no area code so I can't
just call her up for the password) and a box to I guess "sign in". I tried
yanking the battery at the back and resetting it, but that doesn't seem to
work. Any help would be appreciated as I was really looking forward to
using it as a Newton instead of a paper weight!

Regards,
   Tony.
