AlphaSmart Neo 2 or similar

[deKay]

Does anyone:

 

1) Have any of these they no longer need, or

2) Know where to get them from now, or

3) Know of an alternative, very similar product?

 

I know they're discontinued. I am aware that a netbook would be as cheap, or cheaper, but more flexible, but no - it's Neo 2s I need.

 

Any help appreciated!

Got a Dana Wireless here if that's any good?

 

There are some Neo's on Ebay:

 

Job Lot 2 x AlphaSmart Neo 2 Word Processor / 6 x AlphaSmart Neo Word Processor | eBay

Yeah, I saw the eBay ones - all knackered though (or at least untested). Buying from eBay isn't possible at the moment anyway.

 

The Dana looks similar - does it work in the same way for text transfer, as in, it pretends to be a keyboard and "types" into Word or whatever?

[Gibbo]

Yep, precisely the same. It just has the extra Palm apps and OS (so its awesome for "Dope Wars"!)and SD card support for additional storage, and WIFI. Edited October 25, 2016 by Gibbo

OK, well it's worth a try! How much do you want for it?

[Gibbo]

£20 +postage?

 

There's one just come up on Ebay though:

 

dana. AlphaSmart WORD PROCESSOR. Perfect working order. | eBay

Sounds good (yours, eBay is still a problem here!) - I'll let you know when the decision makers are back next week. Thanks!

No worries, just drop me a PM when you're ready.
