@thomasfuchs Those things were pretty great. The Alphasmart Dana was cool, too.

@rcarmo @thomasfuchs I thought that pic was an Alphasmart model! I didn't keep up at the time, never heard of eMate, but it appears no one else did either (CW a company in trouble!):

@benbradley @rcarmo that article is... missing the point, the eMate was literally designed for educational use; see this magazine article: https://archive.org/details/MacWorld9708August1997/page/n65/mode/1up
