Launched in 1984, the Psion Organizer was considered to be the first ever PDA. Its first model was based on an 8-bit Hitachi 6301-family processor. It featured 4K of ROM and 2K of battery-backed RAM, and had a single-row monochrome LCD screen. The machine provided a simple calculator and clock but had no operating system. Psion built on the success of this model by launching a newer model, the Psion Organizer II, which boasted a a much larger ROM and either 8K or 16K of battery-backed RAM and featured a newly-designed non-multitasking operating system. Both models had an alphabetically arranged 6x6 keyboard protected by a hard plastic sliding cover.
