The Time Runner series of Organizers were introduced already in the year 1993 and far ahead the competition. With the slim housing measuring only 0.2 inch they fitted perfectly in a Day Runner system including a calendar, Today pages and tabs for notes, meetings and finances. The book was refillable with the "Day Runner Running Mate Edition" refills.

The Time Runner organizer keeps three main types of information:

	Reminders with unlimited alarms
	Addresses with a capacity of roughly 3000 entries in three personalized lists
	Notes sharing the same 64k 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
	Up to 4 daily alarms
	A calendar from January, 1960 to December, 2059.
	A calculator with 10-digits display capacity
	World time of 23 cities in all 24 time zones
	A backup battery

The display of the Time Runner is very useful supporting 6 lines by 24 characters. The language of the menues could be choosen between five languages: French, English, German, Italian and Spanish.

The PS-9450 TimeRunner uses 32k Byte memory instead the 64k Bytes. In Europe a very similar product was sold as IS-8400.

The system could be personalized with some options:

	PS-9000 Memory Module
	PS-9020 Link between the Organizer and an IBM-compatible PC
