I'm a bit surprised that nobody seems to have answer those questions, but here it
goes.
First, you should really try to read the FAQ
<http://www.info-newt.com/FAQ/index.html>.
Second, you're probably right in your assumptions. Check the FAQ for ways to
"wake-up" a dormant Newton. The OS being in ROM, there's no need to re-install
it.
