since the capacitor is maintaining the machine state. If you sleep the Newt

still be open.

Well I just double checked this, and if you sleep a 2000, pull the battery
and even if you put it right back in, as soon as you turn it on a reset
occurs and does a alert sound and shows a alert box but then the packages
load and it disappears for a sec, then after the packages load it is back up
with another alert sound saying "A reset occured becuase the batteries were
dead". And the clock and date were fine. So pulling the batteries will
reset a 2000. At least with mine anyway.
