Andy,
not sure if we are still talking about MP 110 / 120 / 130 packs. If we
do, the easiest way is to buy for off-the-shelf NiCad rechargeable
cells and put a piece of cardboard beneath the middle two cells so
that they press the switch in the battery compartment. The Newton
will charge them just like the original pack.
NEVER DO THIS WITH NON RECHARGEABLE BATTERIES UNLESS YOU HAVE A
SPARE NEWTON AND A SPARE LIFE!
