Step 7
Be careful and attentious while performing this step.
You have to separate the connection between the
logic-board and digitizer.
The connector (marked with
red
arrow) is on the
other side of the board, right below the Interconnect-
Port (Port is marked
yellow
in this picture).
Lift the board up a bit and put a finger on the
Flat-Cable for the digitizer. Under some circumstan-
ces the cable seems to be pasted to the board.
Do not touch the contacts neither on the cable nor
on the board. The recognition of pen input will be irreparably damaged
otherwise.
After this work is done, the board can be removed, completely.
Step 8
Remove all screws marked
red
. They
hold the plastik-frame around the dis-
play and the upper housing in place.
To unscrew the very small screws
located in the battery-holder you have
to use the very small screwdriver.
Try to keep the power switch in
place. You‘ll have some extra
work to put it back in the correct
position.
Step 9
The display-frame is held by little
plastic-latches, one at the top of the
image and three on the left side, mar-
ked
blue
.
The marked spots on the left are only
important when you reassamble the
Newton™.
Lift-off the display-frame, starting at
the stylus-holder.
Be careful to not harm the dis-
play-cable!
The
yellow
marks are important in
Step 11
.
