Actually created by Kyocera of Japan, the 102 is still in use today
by many people. Its comfortable keyboard makes writing on the
road pleasant, and it easily interfaces to more modern computers.
The optional Disk/Video interface shown here allowed you to
connect this unit to mass storage and a video screen for easier
viewing and editing. The 24 KB of RAM can contain a fair amount
of writing and the CMOS CPU (80c85) can run for 20 hours with
only 4 AA batteries! An optional 9V adapter could also be used.
The initial price was $799 and suprisingly, the unit has still retained
some value over the years because of
its application.
