I'm surprised that this article doesn't mention General Magic for context. It's really crazy how much of this was invented and reinvented but the infrastructure and performance just wasn't there during the 90's in a way to support mass adoption. It was close enough to build something, but all of those somethings failed until WiFi, cell technology and Moore's law supported small enough gadgets. If you haven't watched it yet, I highly recommend the documentary on General Magic. https://www.generalmagicthemovie.com/ https://www.generalmagicthemovie.com/
