Pocket computers links
|
This page contains unsorted links to pocket computers. I did not update this page when updating the site, so there may be lots of brocken links.
The Pocket Computer Museum
This is a french 8 bit pocket museum, with a large collection and detailled explanations for each machine. English version available. Check it out!
Ledudu.com
Certainly the most comprehensive Casio collection on the web, from simple 4 operation calculators to larger Basic and "pre-laptops". The collection also presents several models from other manufacturers. A must see!
Default homepage is in French, the English version is available here.
Daniel Brettnacher's site
This french site presents the collection of my friend Daniel Brettnacher. Lots of pockets; among which the very first Basic pocket computers from HP; software for your Palm, tech info...
Compuseum
Besides having a cool name, this site hosts one of the few collection including a Casio IF-8000. Most of the collection is unfortunately not on line as i write this. Keep up the good work!!
Vintage Computer
Don't mistake this site for any other "vintage(-)computer(s)" site out there. This one displays an interesting collection, which includes few pocket devices but which has it's share of rare bits. On the site, you'll also find a discussion board about vintage computers and collecting (just as expected! :) )
Relojes Databank
This site is in spanish, but it's a valuable place to get started in discovering some of the best and most surprising databank watches ever!
La maison des calculatrices classiques
Another great french site, dedicated to scientific programmable calculators. I like the very complete and accurate historical part in particular... A reference site for french-speakers! :)
The Gadgeteer
Excellent site dedicated to modern pocket machines and PDAs. Even older ones are referenced here. This site is also pretty complete as for up-to-date news, manufacturers projects and latest releases...
Also on the menu : software reviews for almost all platforms, and reviews of various other non-computer pocket devices.
X-Number World
X-Number World is dedicated to calculators, from vintage calculators to modern calculators. Reviews, distributors, various links...

This is page full of links to plenty of pocket computers ressources. Although it's all in japanese text code format, most of the links are in english and one can still read the URLs to guess what the link is about. Check this page, you may find usefull things!
