Jornada 820

In 1998 HP introduced the Jornada brand with the product being the Jornada 820 Palmtop PC. The Jornada 820 ran Microsoft Windows CE, Handheld PC Professional Edition, and had 10 hours of battery life. It offered the usability of a notebook computer with its large screen, touch-typeable keyboard and touch pad, but HP claimed it “had the convenience and portability of a palmtop”. The Jornada 820 could be synchronised with a user’s PC to store PIM (personal information manager) data with the user's PC. It was able to send and receive faxes, had a voice-recorder feature, e-mail capabilities, dial-up e-mail and “graphical web browsing”. It is widely considered to be a pioneering device that led to the introduction of so-called "netbooks" in future years. HP discontinued the Jornada line when the company merged with Compaq in 2002.
