Subject: Re: 28.8 card modems
Subject: RE>28.8 card modems As with all things having to do with hardware, software and communications, it depends. For short transfers with a lot of back-and-forth communication, a faster modem is no help in this situation. For downloads of large objects, e.g. graphics, it will help. You won't see true 28.8 speeds because the OS is crunching, but you'll get quicker response than with a slower modem. \Steve -------------------------------------- Date: 7/11/96 3:33 To: Steve Schramm From: Magic Cap Discussion List Jon I too think a 28.8 modem would be nice. However, the response from my previous suggestion indicated the OS was the limiting factor, not the modem. Active Paper said that a faster modem wouldn't improve the speed of Presto!Mail or Presto!Links. Any comments from Sony or General Magic? Mike

Subject: Re: SKYTEL CARD
Shhh.... Here's a workaround that not even Magic Cap support knows about. I've confirmed it's functionality on several PIC-2000s, and the NeoNet... - Plug the Pager into your 2000, so the packages install on your PIC. - Pull out the batteries from your *pager*. (Not your Link, please!) - After 30 seconds, replace the batteries, and insert the card into a PIC-1000 (You may need to travel to your near-by Good Guys, Office Max, etc for this one) - After the pager card fires up, it should be working now (you get signal) - Turn off power on the PIC-1000, remove card, reinsert it into the 2000 and power up. You'll now have a functioning pager card on the PIC-2000! (And they call this Magic!) Only trick is, you'll need to replace the batteries early before they run out or else you'll need to go back to the Good Guys again!

Subject: Re: Active Paper acquired..
Subject: RE> Active Paper acquired... not Someone already corrected this, but for the record, we did not acquire Active Paper, of course. We purchased the rights to Presto!Mail and Presto!Links technology and then completed the products with the help of Magicians, Active Paper, Allpen, and all you fine Beta testers. We're now busily working on an upgrade based on suggestions from you (so send 'em in!). Active Paper is alive and well in Austin, and I hope they create many more fine Magic Cap products now that they have some pocket change... As for AT&T, well, as you may guess, AT&T does not run their Press Releases by us before sending them out :-) \Steve Steve Schramm VP & General Manager Communication Products Division General Magic -------------------------------------- Date: 7/11/96 10:07 To: Steve Schramm From: Magic Cap Discussion List AT&T Announces Discontinuation Of AT&T Personalink Services Business Wire (BWR) 07/11/96 PARSIPPANY, N.J.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--July 11, 1996--AT&T today informed AT&T PersonaLink(SM) Services customers that the service will be discontinued on August 30, 1996. This action is a continuation of AT&T's strategy to shift from proprietary network-based services to the Internet. Introduced in September of 1994, AT&T PersonaLink Services used Telescript(TM) agent technology to enable Sony Magic Link(TM) and Motorola Envoy(TM) personal communicators to perform customized messaging tasks. Customers of Sony Magic Link and Motorola Envoy will still be able to use the devices for mobile messaging through services currently bundled in each device, such as America Online and/or RadioMail(R), or through the use of third-party software. In addition, they will for the first time be able to use these personal communicators to connect to Internet electronic mailboxes and browse the World Wide Web using software from Active Paper, Inc., which was recently acquired by General Magic. AT&T said all the unit's employees will be reassigned to other parts of the company. Telescript software was developed by General Magic, Inc, founded in May 1990 and headquartered in Sunnyvale, Calif. AT&T continues to be a member of the General Magic Founding Partners Council, which also includes Cable & Wireless, France Telecom, Fujitsu, Matsushita, Mitsubishi Corp, Mitsubishi Electric, Motorola, Nortel, NTT, Oki, Royal Dutch PTT, Philips, Sanyo, Sony and Toshiba. AT&T PersonaLink is a service mark of AT&T. Magic Link is a trademark of Sony Electronics Inc. Telescript is a trademark of General Magic. Envoy is a trademark of Motorola.

You can accomplish this by visiting http://www.compuserve.com and following the instructions there. Once you are a member of CompuServe, use the GO command to go to 'CS4MAGIC' where you can download the software. Be warned that the package is fairly large; it requires approximately 500K, so an SRAM card will be required on your PIC-1000. If you have a card, and it has this much space free, you can also use Presto!Mail. With a bit more space you can also use Presto!Links, the graphical web browser. They do in fact work great on a PIC-1000; I've been very happy using them on my 1000. Of course, using either of these will require an account with any internet service provider that offers PPP. Also, if you can find a provider you like that offers (800) dial-up access, you can continue to enjoy that capability. Regards, Luke Derossi for General Magic, Inc.

Subject: no AOL local access
Magic Cappers: As of July 1st, AOL has discontinued all SprintNet local access numbers here in Honolulu, and their remaining AOLNet numbers do not support Magic Links. Neither Sprint nor the PDA people at AOL have been able to suggest any solution to this problem other than to suggest using an 800 toll number or connecting via a California number. The guys at AOL have been trying to help, but to no avail. With the imminent demise of PLink , it looks like I'll be shopping around for a local ISP for my Magic Link. At least ATT is offering Presto!Mail to it's soon-to-be former customers. I'm curious, though, has AOL done this in any other part of the country, or is it just Honolulu? One of the AOL PDA guys told me it was just Honolulu, but I wonder if it is just continuing a trend that started when AOL discontinued it's SprintNet numbers overseas and replaced them with GlobalNet numbers which also do not support Magic Links. Maybe your town is next? I wonder. Anybody have any info on this? Thanks in advance. Joe Solem

I'll have to try that. I've gotten pretty fast with one stylus, so I don't think I'll be using a hand writiing recognition system. Here's a typing trick I've found which saves a great deal of time on the communicator. Whenever you want to use a set of parens...

Below is their press release from last February. Consult their web page at http://www.sel.sony.com/SEL/Magic/ for more information. -Paul -------------------- GO WIRELESS WITH SONY MAGIC LINK COMMUNICATOR Wireless Modem Link Software Allows Users to Maximize Productivity Anytime, Anywhere SAN JOSE, February 20, 1996 Sony Electronics today announced the availability of its new Wireless Modem Link* software, an easy-to-use package that lets users connect a Magic Link communicator to a cellular phone, enabling wireless communication. With Wireless Modem Link software, a cellular-ready PC modem card and a cable, users can now send faxes, send or receive e-mail, and access the Internet via their cellular phone. This wireless solution is available for both models of the Magic Link communicator (PIC-1000 and PIC-2000). "Sony wanted to develop a wireless option that takes advantage of existing cellular phone services," said Alex Gruzen, director of marketing for Sony Electronics Personal Information Company. "The Wireless Modem Link is an affordable and simple solution that allows customers to use the cellular phone they already own with the Magic Link communicator." Gruzen said that Sony's Wireless Modem Link software is easy to install and offers an intuitive touch-screen interface. With this software, the Magic Link communicator automatically recognizes when a modem card is inserted, immediately bringing up the appropriate selection menu to initiate a wireless connection. Wireless Modem Link supports two popular industry-standard cellular modem PC cards, the APEX MobilePlus V.32 bis or V.34 and the AT&T KeepInTouch card. The Wireless Modem Link software is compatible with most popular brands of cellular phones made by AT&T, GE/Ericsson, Mitsubishi/DiamondTel, Motorola, NEC and Nokia/Technophone. The software also supports Metricom's Ricochet, a wireless modem and data-service that gives users on-line access to the Internet or local and wide area networks. The Wireless Modem Link package is now available directly from Sony for a retail price of $49.95. The PIC-2000 Magic Link product is the latest addition to Sony's line of personal intelligent communicators. This powerful, flexible communications tool includes a backlit screen, an industry-standard 14.4K modem, 2 MB memory, dual PC Card slots, a speakerphone and Magic Cap Version 1.5 operating system. Third-party software applications that offer access to the Internet and existing e-mail systems are currently available for the PIC-2000 Magic Link communicator. In addition, the communicator also comes bundled with a wide variety of software packages for on-line services, including America Online, one of the country's fastest growing online services; AT&T PersonaLink, an advanced e-mail service that connects customers through smart electronic mailboxes; and OAG FlightLine, an airline information service for frequent travelers. The PIC-2000 Magic Link personal intelligent communicator is now shipping and has a suggested retail price of $899.95. The PIC-1000 Magic Link communicator is currently available through major computer retail outlets for a suggested retail price of $499.95. To purchase the Magic Link communicators, Wireless Modem Link software, or related products direct from Sony, customers can call 800-571-SONY. Based in San Jose, Calif., Sony Electronics Personal Information Company develops and markets products for the mobile communications market. Customer service and consumer product information for the family of Magic Link personal communicators are available seven days a week by calling Sony at 1-800-55-MAGIC. Service and support also are available to PC and Macintosh system users through Sony's Magic Link Information Center on America Online or on the Magic Link home page on the World Wide Web at http://www.sel.sony.com/SEL/Magic/. --------------------- Sony New Technologies http://www.sonysoft.com 1-800-739-7337 Attention!

Luke, what happens when you hand your Link to a friend? I think you are very lucky not to have any scratches. I think the screen protectors cut down on the glare, and provide some drag so it feels more like writing on paper. Try it, you might like it. As for the Scramble... you can borrow my Link, I practically have grooves worn in the protector. It's the only game I'll waste precious Ram card space for. Karen karen_h@att.......
