ISTR that Microwriter were responsible for the 'microwriter' - a small hand-held WP machine which used a 'palm-sized' area into which the hand rested, with keys for each finger and the thumb, with different combinations of key-presses for different characters. Like contemporary 'Palm OS' stuff, with stylised hadnwriting, people said that the 'language' could soon be learned, and it gave a very quick method of data entry without a full sized keyboard. If that's the case, then I suspect that the 'Agenda' was a way for Microwriter to appeal to the more conservative people who wanted a 'proper' keyboard! No time for googling ATM, but it might prove interesting! Stuart -- Compact Macs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/>.
