Nope. You can use all (original Apple) adapters with all Newton models.

Wouldn' t worry too much about that. My 2000 also shows this behavior. The
battery meter shows a higher value when the Newton is running on the
rechargeable pack alone and decreases (at least if the pack is pretty much
discharged) as soon as the Newton starts charging.
"Helmut Fischer reported: On my original 9W power adapter (MP2100) it says
7.5V 1.2A. It also works with the MP130."

Yes, it will. It will charge the batts a little slower.
