Bernard,
Well, but it looks as if the Newton community has engineered a solution.
If you want I could pass along the subscription info to NewtonTalk...
I got a AA battery cage for I think both the 120 and the 2100 but the
eMate needs to be plugged in to run... but all 3 still run!
Best,
Judy

Thanks Judy. I was unaware of the 2010 problem too. It shows
unbelievable lack of vision when the hardware outlasts the software.
I still run a Psion II PDA from about 1985. It is apparently
indestructible. It has been dropped many times, including several
occasions when it fell out of my bag whilst I was cycling. I had
several later Psions (3mx, 5mx), but they all died within a few years,
even though they had far less rough treatment.
All my laptops, PCs, Macs are less than 4 years old, and I doubt if I
could count the number of PCs I had since I got that Psion II. But
the Psion and Newton have kept on going. In both cases it is a lack
of foresight about date problems that have limited their future
usability.

So, you might want to get the fix as it looks like it may well exist. I
gotta figure out how to get the fix from a modern Mac to my various Newts...
Best,
Judy
