401K views · 10 years ago · documentary · evergreen
LGR's ten-minute retrospective on General Magic, the 1990s company that tried to build a pocket communicator and its Magic Cap software long before the smartphone. It tells the story of the company and its product.
HN people recommend it as a short and fascinating summary of General Magic, the startup that imagined the smartphone, and point to it next to the documentary.
“Clint of "LazyGameReviews" did a fascinating retrospective on General Magic a while back”
