Cidco MailStation
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Cidco MailStation is a portable e-mail terminal first introduced by Cidco in 1999 at amazon.com and was marketed as the Mivo 100 by EarthLink. The MailStation is no longer sold by either EarthLink or Amazon.
The MailStation is designed to send and receive e-mails via a standard POTS telephone line. It is intended as an alternative to a laptop computer in regards to its messaging capabilities and also as an alternative to a personal computer for those who prefer not to own one but who wish to enjoy the benefits of e-mail.
The device can hold up to four hundred messages and up to one thousand contacts. Since it is not a personal/laptop computer, the MailStation cannot be used to view attachments.
