I have one of these -- the guy I got it from claimed that is was a prototype
Palm Pilot (NO idea where he got that from) but it was a cool looking
machine so I picked it up anyway. Only $8, what the hell...

But I haven't really been able to do anything useful with it -- there's a
little spreadsheet program, text editor, tape recorder, 300 baud modem +
comms software, but my TI-86 graphing calculator can do all of this
(including the modem, up to 9600 bps ;) )
