[NTLK] Newton MessagePad 2000 not switching on

[Rob Moody]

Hi all,
Just a call out into the list…have a newly acquired 200 (after selling mine after hit with COVID layoff)…and it just doesn’t switch on at the power slide switch, with original power pack nor AA battery sled…have tried to clean contacts with pencil eraser, isopropyl…but no go.
Suggestions?
Also sent an email to Frank via his site (as he was so helpful to me many years ago) but haven’t heard back…is he okay and doing well?
