They do not. I work at a fully Apple authorized repair shop and all Newton
models (along with pretty much everything pre PM G3) are classified as
either "vintage" or "obsolete" machines and thus no one can order parts for
them. Since Apple won't service them and repair shops can't *order* parts
for them, you're most likely going to have to find a place that has a
replacement part for you already in stock.
