Portable History

I got to thinking about VCF 2.0 and decided I might like to do a talk about
the history of portable computing. But, knowing my track record in regards
to such things, I figure I better start researching now in order to be ready
for VCF 3.0 or 4.0!

So, I'd like to hear from anyone who has a story to tell about the history
of portable computers and such, or has any data on what the first portable,
first laptop, first handheld, etc. was etc. Also, any interesting portables
you have in your collection or know about, please tell me. Basically, if it
has to do with portable computing (or even relates to it in some obscure
way) I'd like to hear about it.

Please e-mail me directly at <sinasohn_at_ricochet.net>. I'll take anything I
can get, compile it, and see if I can come up with something. Thanks!

P.S., I do collect portable computers (which somehow doesn't explain the
Mini's in the basement) so if you have any you want to get rid of... 8^)
