Newton revival?

drats... I finally dug out my Apple Newton 130 from the move ephemera and
it's not working with a fresh battery(s) replacement. I know it worked when
packed 4 months ago and the batteries musta died in transit.

I remember seeing something about jumpstarting these things back to life
when left with dead cells for awhile but now can find nothing on the web...
My Newton 2100 sprang back to life immediately with the same set of
batteries that I'm trying to use in the 130...

Replaced batteries and even hit the recessed reset button in the battery
compartment. Nothing...

Can anyone help?
