This came from an individual who managed the cell computing development team at Coke (as in Coca Cola) who documented that they did a good deal of operate with Apple. He mentioned it was not developed exclusively for Coke and there have been by no means any firm ideas with it.
"Apple was far more or much less looking for a cause to develop the tablet and never ever did find a market place. I have no concept how a lot of exist. I only know of a single other and it is in a computer museum in California."
Based mostly on the partial sticker on this as well as the sticker on the prototype stylus, it appears to be serial number 36.
However, it came without a energy offer and I’ve in no way been able to electricity it up (it really is a strange port dimension and form – unlike other Newtons).
The subsequent arrives from Studio Taktika (http://www.taktika.com/StudioTaktika/portfolio/newton_web/newton_three.htm ):
Newton handheld, based mostly on a letter-size footprint, featuring two pcmcia cards, retractable I/O doorway, detachable battery pack, drive-thrust stylus, IR, microphone and speaker.
From www.a-in-a-circle.com/newton/bic.html :
Ok. The workforce began from scratch again and intended a new unit even now following the previous suggestions. It was codenamed "Bic". Meanwhile the industry developed a new and far better touchsensitive screen which weren’t that specific and vivid but significantly, considerably less expensive. They also imagined that a 2nd PCMCIA slot would be a great thought, due to the fact one was intended to be utilised by a modem…. and exactly where really should the RAM card go?
