I just had to have these...

....So I bought them.

Just got these today... bought them off a member on 68kmla.....$xxx for all 3. They are General Magic Datarover 840s. All 3 are in very good shape, and all 3 work. I think the coolest thing about them is the fact they use Sony Mavica digital camera batteries... same voltage and mA. Therefore I can use the Mavica charger I have to charge the batteries. I already bought a compatible WiFi card on fleabay, as well as a PCMCIA to Compactflash card adapter. I'm actually surprised that these weren't more popular.

Never heard of these before. Nice haul. Looks like either a Palm competitor of some kind.

They're certainly unique. The OS on them is very user friendly and interactive, as well as being aesthetically pleasing. I can't wait to get my CF card adapter so I can get some programs on it.

There's even one on eBay, but it has a screen problem (And the seller has the year listed wrong... should be late 90's.) -
