The MP130 - as well as the MP120 has 2 little connectors in the
bottom which line up with the cradles power connectors. There is no
such connectors anywhere on the MP2x00. But the MP2x00 has a much
better power management - or so they say - and it should last for
about 3 weeks of normal usage. Playing chess 8 hours a day while you
should be working is not considered normal usage, I guess.

I have never heard of or seen a cradle for the MP2x00 - and even if
such a thing would exist, it would require a modification of the case
of the Newton and I'm not willing to risk that ...

Best regards,
Chris
