[NTLK] The eMate Turns 20

[Maurice Sharp]

For me it was the beginning of the end of my time in the Newton Group. I left around April of that year as it appeared the writing was on the wall and there were no other roles I could find.

And that led to another handheld that eventually met the same fate. I still have a few Palm devices around, clear included.

The eMate would set the usable small PC on fire right now! These under powered Google machines  would fall by the way side! Steve Jobs did not make Apple, Users made Apple! These processors offered before the great shake down, never had a chance once King Steve arrived back on the scene! And by the way, Steve Wozniak, is the person who made the  computer available to the rest of US!
