The Cidco Mivo 200 gives you full e-mail functionality with style and simplicity, without the clutter and complexity of a PC--setup merely requires batteries and a phone line. You can send e-mails with the touch of a button and the screen flashes when you receive an incoming e-mail.

The appliance includes an integrated keyboard, easy-to-read tilted screen, and an intuitive button layout. The ergonomic, portable design allows you to write e-mails on the go that send automatically the next time you connect to a phone line.

The built-in memory saves 1,000 e-mail addresses and about 400 typical e-mail messages. Useful extras include an integrated calculator and spell check function. The package includes four AA batteries for portable use and an AC adapter for continuous power while at home. The quick-start card and user manual guide you through setup and e-mail usage.

The phone-line based e-mail services cost $9.95 a month for unlimited access and are available all the time from nearly any location. Cidco's Mivo 200 comes with a one-year warranty for parts and labor.
