Poqet PC

I've muddied the waters a bit... The link I included was for the
later Fujitsu Poqet PC Plus. Fujitsi bought out the original
company before or while the second generation product was being
offered. CA Digital is giving specs for the Plus model, which is
what I believe they're selling. Gee, I wonder if this is covered
on one of the timelines people have been discussing...

The original Poqet PC has _no_ backlight, uses 2 std AA cells, and
MS-DOS 3.3 in ROM. Not sure how much memory is in there, ISTR at
least 512K and maybe more. There's a small ramdisk on D: for
AUTOEXEC/CONFIG.SYS, and the DOS ROM is C:. The two PCMCIA slots
at A:/B: are nice, especially with the 2MB SRAM cards - however I
appear to have forgotten to refresh the lithium backup batteries
in mine :^}

Fred's right, the original Poqet brings pretty much the whole XT
bus out to a connector on the back. I like the idea of hooking
this up to a backplane... B^P

Somewhere I have the docs from when I bought the thing, but it
may be years before they surface again.
