Just so ya know, the founders of AlphaSmart are ex Apple/Newton. The concept was pushed at Apple but it did not fit into Apples plans so the guys went out on there own. Kind or like Woz and Steve did at HP. The main market was education. The company was originaly called Intellegent Perferials and the product was called the AlphaSmart. The first two were a little more robust than the new version mostly because of the screen size. They were never designed with thought of someone driving over them.
