About the Company
EO, Inc., based in Mountain View, California, was a manufacturer of wireless tablet computer systems. The company’s two principal products were the EO Personal Communicator 440 and EO Personal Communicator 880.
The company originated as a spin-out of the hardware team from GO Corporation (developer of the PenPoint operating system). The company was subsequently acquired by AT&T. The first product, the EO Personal Communicator 440, was released in 1993, produced in conjunction with David Kelley Design, frog design, Matsushita, Olivetti, and Marubeni corporations.
Among the EO customers AT&T claimed were: New York Stock Exchange, Andersen Consulting, Lawrence Livermore Laboratories, FD Titus & Sons, and Woolworths. EO, Inc. went out of business on July, 29, 1994, after failing to meet its revenue targets and to secure the funding to continue.
