MessagePad 110

MessagePad 120 is a personal digital assistant produced by Apple Inc. for the Newton platform. It was released in 1994 as part of the MessagePad line, which runs on Newton OS.

Release
The MessagePad 110 was released on March 4, 1994 for US$599, alongside the MessagePad 100, an updated and discounted version of the original MessagePad. The 110 was superseded by the MessagePad 120 and was discontinued in April 1995.

Features
The MessagePad 110 introduced a new rubberized form factor which was the first to be designed by Jonathan Ive at Apple. It used the same 20 MHz ARM 610 processor as the MessagePad 100, but with memory increased to 1 MB of static RAM. 544 KB was used by Newton OS 1.2, leaving 480 KB available for user data. Storage space could be expanded through the PCMCIA Type II slot which supplied 115 mA of power. The monochrome LCD screen displayed 320 x 240 pixels, which was slightly shorter and dimmer than the ones in preceding models manufactured by Sharp Corporation.
