The Panasonic RL 1400 (or RL H 1400), as it was popularly known,
became available soon after I decided to buy one. I can't remember when.
The 1400 came with 4K of RAM, about 1400 bytes available. Oddly enough.
You could program the 1400 in 3 languages: Microsoft BASIC, something
called Snap BASIC, and Snap FORTH. There were also: A file manager,
a calculator, and a clock with alarms built in, and an RPN scientific
calculator module available. The unit had a 20-character alphanumeric
LCD display.
If you want one with all of the above (and a 16K memory module, battery-
backed, be it known that David Motto, 2754 Granada (Apt 2A),
Jackson, Michigan 49202 has one available at a reasonable price -
no reasonable offer refused ($200? I spent much more on it).
