In cases like this I have found that the most
reliable results can be obtained by trying things
out. I pressed the reset button on my 2100 and
kept it pressed, and, lo and behold, the Newton
powers up and restarts in a loop.
If this is in fact your problem, I can fix your
Newton for free. I have some organ donator boards
that could be convinced to part with a reset button.
