The story of the audacious, visionary, totally calamitous iPad of the ’90s

Of course, AT&T wasn't the company that ended up bringing us most of the tech predicted in the "You Will" ads. But it did bring that tablet device to market. It's called the EO Personal Communicator 440, and while not the first mass-manufactured tablet computer - that honor goes to the GRiDPad, a device sold by Radio Shack's corporate parent Tandy - the EO is generally considered one of the first tablets with mobile connectivity. Released by AT&T in 1993, not long after the telecom giant bought a majority stake in its maker EO, it was a tantalizing glance into the future.

Any article on the EO is an article I will post - I'm a simple man - but that website's fonts and font colours give me a headache.
