If any US readers are interested in acquiring an interesting little embedded appliance, the Mailstation 120 and 150 devices are being dumped by OfficeMax at $9 each. This is a little email appliance, powered off either 4xAA cells or an AC adapter. Maxell alkalines, AC adapter and phone cord are included. It has a large supertwist dot-matrix LCD screen, QWERTY keyboard (about 80% of full size), a speaker and a Conexant-based modem, as well as a parallel port.
The device appears to be be based on a Z80 derivative, possibly even a customized/house-numbered Rabbit device. There's 128K of SRAM and both a 1Mbyte and 512Kbyte flash chip; one probably contains the OS, the other contains user data.
FCC search does not find anything on the ID number.
These are intended to access a proprietary service that apparently no longer exists. I bought a few because I couldn't resist temptation. They could be a very interesting little hackable appliance.
