Actually it's the other way round. Slide the power switch and keep it down,
press and release the reset button, wait until the "Do you really..." dialog
appears, release the power switch and confirm two times that you know what
you are doing. After the reboot the Newton will be reset to factory
conditions except for intalled OS updates. Make sure to remove all PCMCIA
cards before you reset your Newton.
