The
PS-6200 started already in the year 1991 a series of Organizers leading to products
like the PS-6700 and ending with the PocketMate
300 only 9 years later.
The PS-6200 organizer keeps three main types of information:
 | Reminders with unlimited alarms |
| Addresses with a capacity of roughly 1500 entries |
| Notes sharing the same 32k Byte memory like the addresses |
In addition to the basic Organizer function you'll discover:
| A flexible clock with 12-hour AM/PM or 24-hour time |
| A calculator with 10-digits display capacity |
| World time of 23 cities in all 24 time zones |
| A backup battery |
| A transfer cable to connect two PS-6200 Organizers |
The
display of the PS-6200 is very useful supporting 3 lines by 18 characters. About
one year after the introduction of the PS-6200 the powerful PS-6600
Organizer appeared. The display was enhanced to 6 lines by 32 characters and the
internal memory doubled.
The direct successor of the PS-6200 could be found with the PS-6300.
The
PS-6200 seems to be an OEM-product, the same electronics was found in the Canon
DM-4000 Organizer. The picture on the right gives you the PS-6200 assembled
in Taiwan on top, the Canon DM-4000 was assembled 4 years later in Malaysia.
