Actually they do, unfortuately, tend to be rare as most Newtons where
purchased with the NiHM battery pack, leaving users discarding the original
battery tray. Then when the NiHM packs stop working, people go looking for
the cages - which are usually in some land-fill by that point.
Hence.. they're rare.
