Newton MP110 - Just died
You may see from other post that I'm attempting to get my Newton MP110 up and running again and connected to my iBook.
For the first time in years I inserted batteries and fired up the messagepad. Hey presto - it started!! I was using it for about 20 minutes, doing the initial config and parameter settings. Then, while working on the handwriting recognotian feature it just died on me.
It was booted with new batteries. So, I though, maybe after all this time it's just zapped them. I've now replaced the batteries with a fresh set and... nothing at all. The MP will not start up at all.
HELP!! Any suggestions as to what may have happened. How likely is it that this has finally gone to the great Newton factory in the sky? Or, is this repairable? Is it worth the cost of the repair. It could be a sign that I buy that MP2100 or replace my Palm M125 with the Tungsten E2 I've been thinking about?
Thanks for any suggestions.
Jamie.
