£50 for Your Old Diary? Time is Running Out on Amstrad’s Amazing Offer
December 23, 1993 — Just as people are thinking about buying their 1994 diaries, Amstrad has come up with an amazing offer: You will receive £50 for your old diary or organiser when you buy one of Amstrad's world beating PenPad Personal Digital Assistants.
Amstrad scored a resounding world first when it launched the revolutionary PenPad earlier this year.
Capable of instantly recognising handwriting and immediately turning it into text for storage, transfer to a PC or printout, the £299.99 inc VAT pocket sized marvel uses a simple 'pen' for input, doing away with the need for a keyboard.
Because the PenPad has so many functions, Amstrad is offering a £50 cheque to all purchasers if they trade in either an old diary, or any FIlofax/organiser, calculator, or electronic 'gizmo' that the PenPad has effectively rendered redundant.
Amstrad's PenPad is not only a diary, address and telephone book, sketchbook, calculator and calendar, it also features automatic phone dialling, search facility by any word and number, 'scribble and save' note taker, alarm clock and even world time clock. Already the software industry has recognised the many business and domestic applications for PenPad, and new software programmes are beginning to pour in.
Amstrad's offer, which lasts until 31st January 1994, is available at any of the thousands of Pen Pad stockists throughout the country.
