I’ve raved about the Model 100 before. Even with a 40 column screen it was perfectly usable for messaging on remote systems.
One of the clever things it had was two holes in the back. They were (by design or happenstance) perfectly sized for regular pencils. You cut the pencils to your desired length, shove them in the holes and use the erasers for rubber feet. Perfect to get the angle just right.
M100 had one of the best keyboards I ever used.
And to be fair, the 40 column display is much more reasonable for this form factor. 80 columns gets pretty small, pretty fast. Nice thing about text based web pages and word processing documents is that they wrap just fine to 40 characters.
