*With optional Microsoft BASIC ROM
The
RL-H1400 is the second, 4 kB member of Panasonic's family of so-called HHCs, or Hand Held
Computers. Functionally identical to the RL-H1800, it only has half
the memory.
These machines were often sold in preconfigured form, in application-specific OEM
packages. The RL-H1400 I have contains a pair of ROM chips with an insurance application.
All RL-H series machines can be used stand-alone as a four-function calculator;
however, programmability was only possible through the use of an optional ROM version of
Microsoft BASIC. (Presumably other programming tools were also available, including
assembly language tools.)
