Folks still trying to recreate a more perfect Apple Newton with the external keyboard option. (I'm all for it!) See: https://www.flickr.com/photos/animbear/693

  Yes because Apple invented the modular technology of a separate keyboard and portable computer... /s > trying to recreate a more perfect Apple Newton with the external keyboard option I wasn't alive when that was produced, does that mean I am trying to recreate something I don't know about? I think I get it though, it sounds like it was a product you liked. Excuse the above sarcasm, i just get frustrated that this whole 'repurposing black box tech' is a even thing and I wish we lived in the modular open source and anticapitalist/socialist world of tomorrow, today.

  Years ago I had an old Apple eMate 300 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EMate_300 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EMate_300. It was surprisingly good! I wrote a lot on it, and it was even able to print wirelessly via IR. They put a ton of features into it, surprising for an education-centric device. It was the OLPC before OLPC was a gleam in anyone’s eye.
