Hello. I've acquired two of these and am looking for info.
From the limited information I can pull up via Google, I've deduced that they were built for British Government use and may be the first portable word processor (in the UK perhaps, if not worldwide). 1985 or so seems to be their date of origin. The Government theory seems plausible as they belong to my friend who is ex-civil service and he bought them from his boss for 50p each in an office clearout in the early 90s.
Amazingly, after a short charge, they both still work!
Anybody have any other information on these?
