If you remove the card while the Newton is rebooting it's exactly as
harmful as rebooting.

Well, you should have remove the battery, then the card, and put the
battery on. Wait until it booted, then hold the pen in the proper
position and insert the card, say no, and voilą.

Heaven or Hell works like a charm for me.
