Heh. That booktron object looks familiar.

Darn Steve Jobs, stealing ideas from SS2.

Both of them likely copied the idea from Arthur C. Clarke's newspad.

SS2 came out in 1999. Remember what was all the rage in 1999?

Ha, actually, I had forgotten all about the original Palm Pilots. And I've only seen 2001 once, so there's no way I'd remember the newspad (though looking at it, the final designs for the magazines were probably based more on it than the booktron was).
