Does anyone know if network cards put an extra strain on the batteries in a
Newton? I just got my wired network card working in my 2100 (802.11b is
next), and the battery went stone dead, even though the newton wasn't on the
network most of the time. Boy did my heart sink when my trusty newt wouldn't
power up!

TIA,
Mike
