Those are a lot of fun; I had a model 102 for a while,        but the = key broke and wasn't much use after that -- and I wasn't up to        fixing the key back then.              There's a new device that's roughly the same form factor called a FreeWrite        - it's got mechanical keys and a tiny screen, and just does word processing.        Apparently writers who want a distration-free tool can use it to write        without the distractions of the internet.              I'd like to go to a coffee shop (when they open again) and whip out my m100        onto the table and start writing my novel with it.              Personally, I'd like an old DOS laptop with VDE, if I could find one with a        decent screen and a good battery.                                          ...
