I-Predecessor yama-iPhones nama-iPads. Ividiyo entsha ithwebula i-Apple WALT engakaze ibonwe

E-Macworld eBoston ngo-1993, i-Apple yethula idivayisi yokuguqula ngaleso sikhathi, noma i-prototype yayo - bekuyilokho okubizwa nge-Wizzy Active Lifestyle Telephone, noma i-WALT. Bekuyifoni yokuqala yedeski yakwa-Apple, nayo ebinohlu lwemisebenzi eyengeziwe. Kanye ne-Apple Newton communicator, kwaba ngendlela eyandulela ama-iPhones nama-iPads anamuhla - cishe iminyaka engamashumi amabili ngaphambi kokwethulwa kwawo.

Ngenkathi i-Apple Newton yaziwa kahle futhi ibhalwe kahle, akukho okuningi okwaziwayo nge-WALT. Izithombe zesibonelo zigcwele kuwebhu, kodwa akukaze kube khona ividiyo ebonisa ukusebenza kwedivayisi. Lokho manje sekushintshile, njengoba i-akhawunti kanjiniyela kaSonny Dickson ye-Twitter ibonise ividiyo ye-WALT esebenzayo.

Idivayisi isebenza ngokumangalisayo, kodwa nakanjani akuyona i-speedster. Ngaphakathi kunesistimu yokusebenza ye-Mac System 6, ukuthinta kokuthinta kusetshenziswa ukulawula. Lolu cingo lunemisebenzi yokwamukela nokufunda amafeksi, ukuhlonza ofonayo, uhlu lokuxhumana olwakhelwe ngaphakathi, iringithoni yokuzikhethela noma ukufinyelela kusistimu yasebhange yangaleso sikhathi ukuze kuhlolwe ama-akhawunti.

Emzimbeni wedivayisi, ngaphezu kwesikrini sokuthinta, kwakukhona izinkinobho eziningana ezizinikezele ezinomsebenzi ohleliwe. Kwakungenzeka ngisho nokwengeza i-stylus kudivayisi, eyayingase isetshenziselwe ukubhala. Kodwa-ke, ukubulawa, ikakhulukazi impendulo, ihambisana nesikhathi kanye nezinga lobuchwepheshe obusetshenzisiwe. Nokho, kuwumphumela omuhle kakhulu engxenyeni yokuqala yama-90s.

Ividiyo inkulu kakhulu futhi ikhombisa izinketho ezahlukene zokusetha idivayisi, ukuyisebenzisa, njll. I-Apple WALT yathuthukiswa kanye nenkampani yocingo i-BellSouth, futhi mayelana nehadiwe, yasebenzisa ingxenye enkulu yezingxenye ze-PowerBook 100. Nokho, ekugcineni, idivayisi ayizange yethulwe ngokwentengiso, futhi yonke iphrojekthi yanqanyulwa ngendlela esebenza ngokuqhathaniswa. Njengoba sesivele sazi namuhla, iphrojekthi efanayo yabonakala eminyakeni engamashumi amabili kamuva, lapho i-Apple yethula i-iPhone futhi eminyakeni embalwa kamuva i-iPad. Ugqozi kanye nefa le-WALT kungabonakala kulawa madivaysi uma uthi nhla.
