And of this. My K-thru-8 school was a pilot school for these. Even then I wondered what person would pay $800 for it.

Yeah my school must have been one of the test-sites for them as well. They were truly amusing to me. The screens were the most dreadful part about them.
I also seem to remember them running disturbingly hot.

Had a bunch of teachers that were given 'Mates, but nothing ever came of them...

You know what, I could make a comment about a guy who virtually disappears for 'x amount' of months and then comes back trying to get smart with people. But I think I'll keep that little tidbit to myself.
