This runs Linux+Gnome. The interesting thing is now: Gnome is even younger than Squeak (I think it started in the fall of 1997).
The big question now is: Why does this device not run Squeak as the OS/GUI? Why is Squeak as a project not in a state that it could be the OS of this device? Or: Why did Squeak fail?

Another interesting machine has just shown up, pointed out to me by John Maloney...
I thought this might be of interest. The Dynabook is getting closer and closer...

The article doesn't give the screen size, but it looks like about VGA in the photo. It seems quite inexpensive for what you get. Maybe you have to sign up for some sort of service plan to get it...
