In 1993, Apple Computer Inc. released the very first PDA(personal digital assistants) "The Newton®". For the next three years, PDA sales dwindled, and were almost off the charts. Then, in March 1996, Palm™, Inc. delivered the industry's first truly compelling handheld computer, the PalmPilot.

The first "PDA" was released in 1984 by Psion, the Organizer I. Apple coined the term PDA to stand for Personal Digital Assistant. I still use and own my Apple Newton MessagePad 100 from 1993...
