The Sharp IQ7300-M databank with 64KB of internal memory was released in 1990. I purchased it in 1991 after saving for months. I loved the idea of it having a series of external cards that extended its functionalities. I remember there were games like chess, there were dictionaries and other utilities. This thing is a bit like an Apple Newton, in the sense that it has kept going for 35 years, just by periodically replacing batteries. It still holds memos and phone numbers I saved 30 years ago.
