personal digital assistants (microcomputers, <computers by size>, ... Furnishings and Equipment (hierarchy name)) |
|
Note: Handheld computers first developed in the late 1980s and early 1990s, that had a miniature keyboard and handwriting-recognition software. Originally meant to perform simple tasks such as calculation and organizing, they have since become more advanced. Most PDAs now have the ability to act as a mobile phone, surf the Internet, and run more advanced software. |

Chinese (traditional) ..... 於西元 1980 年代晚期和西元 1990 年代早期首度開發問世的掌上型電腦,具有小型鍵盤和手寫辨識軟體。設計原意旨在運算小型簡易的任務指令,如計算和組織,之後功能逐漸改良。現今大多數的 PDA 具有手機、上網和更進階軟體的功能。 |
Dutch ..... Computers op handformaat die voor het eerst eind jaren 80, begin jaren 90 van de 20ste eeuw werden ontwikkeld, en die waren uitgerust met een miniatuurtoetsenbord en software voor handschriftherkenning. Ze waren oorspronkelijk bedoeld voor de uitvoering van eenvoudige taken zoals berekeningen en agendabeheer, maar zijn sindsdien veelzijdiger geworden. De meeste pda’s kunnen tegenwoordig dienst doen als mobiele telefoon, geven toegang tot het internet en voeren zeer geavanceerde software uit. |
