In 2000, Psion acquired Canadian firm Teklogix and for a while released machines under the brand Psion Teklogix – these were more aimed at the industrial and commercial markets. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 1999 Psion released the Netbook, then in 2000 they released a consumer version, the Series 7<\/a> (with some changes). In 2003, under the Psion Teklogix brand, they released the Netbook Pro.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

The Netbook Pro does not run on Psion’s EPOC operating system, but instead runs Windows CE. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The outer shell of the Netbook Pro is extensively based on the Netbook and Series 7<\/a> with some changes. Since I don’t own a Psion Netbook, I’ll compare with the Series 7 (I don’t think there are many outward differences between it and the Netbook, anyway).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Apart from the colour of the hard plastic and the texture of the leather-like material, the top is almost identical on the two machines. They hinge in exactly the same way.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

When opened up, the differences are slightly more noticeable: <\/p>\n\n\n\n
