I found the following in Murphy's Vaporware column for July 1990:

> Palmtops.
> Sony displayed a $1,320 Palmtop computer at Comdex.  The
> Sony PTC-500 uses a stylus entry system and has no
> keyboard.  Peripherals include a 2-inch disk drive, modem,
> 64K memory expansion, and a printer.  - InfoWorld 28 May

I had heard of this, and that it was only available in Japan.  Is Sony now 
selling it in the US?  With US-English character recognition?

Did anyone get a chance to see this at Comdex?
