I did some scanning of Psion documents today at Ucreate at Edinburgh university library:
- Palmtop magazine issues 13-16 and issues 31-34.
- A Psion catalogue listing hardware and software for the Series 3.
- A Psion 3fax brochure.
I miss Psions.
There is a review of the Nokia 9210 (although one page is corrupted); I'd forgotten how excited people were then having a pocket computer connected to the internet -with colour!
