Amaya Toman Esitolimendeni sanamuhla sochungechunge lwethu oluvamile lwemicimbi yobuchwepheshe emikhulu, sikhumbula unyaka owodwa kulokhu. Lokhu kungokwe-Apple PDA ebizwa nge-Newton MessagePad, isethulo sayo sokuqala esiwela ngoMeyi 29.
Kungaba njalo okuthakaselayo
I-Apple ikhipha i-Newton MessagePad yayo (1992)
NgoMeyi 29, 1992, i-Apple Computer yethula iPDA yayo ebizwa ngeNewton MessagePad eCES eChicago. Inhloko yenkampani ngaleso sikhathi kwakunguJohn Sculley, owamemezela izintatheli mayelana nokwethulwa kwalezi zindaba, phakathi kokunye, ukuthi "akuyona into engaphansi kwenguquko". Ngesikhathi sesethulo, inkampani yayingenayo i-prototype esebenza ngokugcwele etholakalayo, kodwa abahlanganyeli be-fair bangabona okungenani imisebenzi eyisisekelo ye-Newton bukhoma - isibonelo, uku-oda i-pizza ngefeksi. Kodwa-ke, abasebenzisi bekumele balinde kuze kube ngu-Agasti 1993 ukuze i-PDA ye-Apple iqhubeke nokudayiswa Ekugcineni, i-Newton MessagePad ayizange ihlangabezane nempendulo enhle evela kubasebenzisi. Isizukulwane sokuqala sibe namaphutha emsebenzini wokuqaphela ukubhala ngesandla nokunye ukushiyeka okuncane. I-Newton MessagePad ifakwe iphrosesa ye-ARM 610 RISC, imemori ye-flash, futhi yasebenzisa isistimu yokusebenza ye-Newton OS. Idivayisi inikwe amandla amabhethri epensela encane, anikeze ithuba lamabhethri epensela akudala kumamodeli akamuva. U-Apple uzame ukuthuthukiswa okuqhubekayo kuzibuyekezo ezalandela, kodwa ngo-1998 - ngemva nje kokuba uSteve Jobs ebuyele enkampanini - ekugcineni wayimisa i-Newton.
