I've performed a similar operation on my own Newton, but wouldn't trust
myself to do it on anyone else's.

That said, there are a couple of good do-it-yourself pages out there:

John Skinner's step-by-step (short on particulars like what gets snipped and
soldered!):

http://www.johnskinner.net/newtonhack/index.html

I used this as a guide before deciding to put my input jack where a SER-001
would go (the bulge of the case urked me). I found a part at radio shack
that would fit in the empty space, and could be screwed in, and could be
used as a bipass or a passthrough - when headphones were plugged in, the
speaker goes mute.

And, here is Daniel Padilla's page for doing the same (with info on how to
patch into the speaker wiring):

Does such a wonderful individual exist?
