Hello Frank,

Sorry. Each eMate came with a 4MB flash storage card. And each eMate was in
a different box of stuff. In two of the boxes, the only remarkable item was
the eMate, but the third box had 9 alphasmarts w/cases and a eMate in it.
Thanks for the tips on the reset, I've been to the apple tech support
archive and found a few tech nots that should also be of help. As soon as I
score a power adaptor, I'll do some maintance on the hinges. I've got all
the parts and tool ready, I just want ot make sure the computer works first.
For the curious or intersted, I plan to sell 7 of the 9 AlphaSmarts. I am
putting them on eBay, in fact I've put the first one up:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=177&item=3434013902
I've got to support my Typewriter & Computer collection some how.
Typewrites? you're asking yourselfs. No I'm not some ludite, I just like
tech, old tech, new tech, its all interesting to me. But that's another
email list.
I used an AlphaSmart to write the description text for the computers I have
up on eBay now. I also used them in school when they where new, so I wasn't
unhappy that they came with the eMates. :-D
Excelsior!
