I'm having a serious problem with my upgraded MP2ooo. When running on battery, if I twist or press on the lower right hand corner of the Newt, the power shuts off and the screen goes blank. When I can finally get the MP to turn back on, it informs me that the system restarted because the battery was dead, even if I have a fully charged pack. This only happens when I am running on
battery, I can't get it to occur if the power supply is plugged in. It's a very frustrating problem, as I have to be extremely careful how I hold or carry it and then if I did it the wrong way, I have to wait while all my packages reactivate before I can do anything. I'm really hoping that this is a problem with my battery pack and not my Newton. My next Newton purchase is going to be a AA battery tray, so hopefully I can run experiments with a different pack. If anyone else has experienced these symptoms, could you let me Know what you found out, or if anyone has any suggestions, I'd appreciate them.
Thanks,
Matt
