I agree that the Epson was earlier, but the Tandy TRS-80 Model 100 had a lot more impact.

My first "pda" was the Sharp PC1500. I still have it. Wonderful. It was in 1982, I was 16 years old. Overclocked to 4 MHz, got the semi-secret assembly code manual, hacked the thing to make a two-players tron-like game on the bw low-res 7x156 dots lcd. Sigh...

Man, Sadavyk, you have no idea! It was like being on a frontier then. You'd play around with something like the above, and then the oh-so-sweet Commodore 64 comes out and it's a whole new ball game. *sigh...*
