AT&T EO Personal Communicator 880

The EO 880 was an early commercial tablet computer that was created by EO, Inc. (later acquired by AT&T Corporation), and released in April 1993. EO (Latin for “I go”) was the hardware spin-out of GO Corp.

Officially named the AT&T EO Personal Communicator, it was similar to a large personal digital assistant with wireless communications, and competed against the Apple Newton.
