i am very close to getting an apple newton h1000 and i was wondering what i could do with it apart from playing around with it ie, i want to use it as it was intended (as much i can anyway) so do you have any advice on how i can use it in this day and age?

also id really like to connect it to my windows laptop (windows 10) so i can put programs and the like on it if thats possible (i did find a listing for a 8 pin to usb cable thats 50 BLOODY POUNDS but thats ok because il probably find anther listing on temu for something similar

i have rechargable aa betteries that i can use with the newton so i think il be fine interns of batteries

At the time rechargable AA and AAA batteries were Ni-Cad and wouldn't work because they don't produce enough voltage chemically. NIMh might have the same problem. Be prepared to have 1.5v Alkalines available.
