REX 6000
The Rex 6000 is an ultra-thin PDA
produced by Xircom,
then Intel,
from about 2000
to 2001.
Its primary claim to fame is as "The world's smallest
full-function PDA": due to its unusual physical
configuration as a PCMCIA
Type-II card (8.57 x 5.40 x .5 cm;
40 g),
it may be synchronized by inserting it in a host PC's
PCMCIA/PC-card slot.
The Rex 6000 is the successor to the Franklin
REX
5000, with the primary difference being the addition of a touch
screen. It appears to have been initially developed by the Citizen
Watch Company of Japan,
marketed as the "DataSlim-2."
The Rex 6000 is available with up to 2 MB
of flash
memory. It uses a 4.3 MHz
Z80
microprocessor,
has a 240 by 120 pixel
monochrome
LCD,
and is powered by two button-type lithium
cells.
As of 2003,
the Rex 6000 retains a devoted group of users and developers.
