Hey there guys.
I'm just wondering if anyone with physical access to a Newton MessagePad 2x00 or Newton eMate 300 and a pair of vernier calipers can help me here.
I need to know the barrel width (outer diameter of the power plug) and pin width (inner diameter of the power plug) for the DC input jack.
Any precise answers would be greatly appreciated as I'm currently hacking up a small Vreg that should make it safe to use most common wall-warts to charge a newton, and following that I will be making a complete DC supply unit, once I've got this prototype tweaked - let's face it, why buy a Newton Power Supply when you can make one in eMate Translucent Green?
