Welcome IvaneCibe, thank you for joining us on the forum. We recently changed the DNotesCoin.com website and logo in preparation for DNotes 2.0. We plan to do an overhaul on DNotesVault.com as well. DCEBrief, will have a few upgrades coming up shortly. CryptoMoms, we plan to roll into a new broader scope property likely towards the end of 2018.

For anyone new, or looking to give people a good idea of what DNotes is all about. This is another excellent video from Tim.

Thanks Tim! Great work, I know you have put a lot of effort into the white paper. I will work with Ken to continue to refine.

As recently shared on facebook, this is an amazing video Tim created when he was here over the summer outlining why DCEBrief is so important to our ecosystem.

Awesome MiningHabit! Congrats. We plan to make it significantly easier to accept payments using DNotes in the near future.

All, doing some cleanup. If you can help find old links or references to sites that no longer work, that would be helpful.

Welcome lxxtikk! What Alan was suggesting is that if you send your DNotes to DNotesVault.com, which is an online web vault for your DNotes run by the DNotes team and backed by a matching guarantee fund, is that your DNotes will automatically be swapped to DNotes 2.0 when the 1:1 coin swap occurs. You can use your desktop wallet, and still participate in the swap, but it will be semi-manual process. You can sign up for our newsletter on DNotesCoin.com to stay up to date and be notified of the coin swap. Thanks!

Welcome to the DNotes forum ambreenamin! If you have any questions or need any help, we have a great community here.

“the offering is being issued under SEC guidelines as a security token under Regulation 506 (c) as an exempt offering and will be open to properly accredited investors from the United States, Canada, the UK, and several other nations.”

It means that the small investors will be left out. Reg. D 506 (c) is a significantly less burdensome process with no requirements for audited financial statements.

Oh, I didn't catch that part. That is unfortunate.

This is a very interesting one. Kodak, being an industry outsider, taking on a large project as they recognize the value and potential in blockchain and how it can tie into their company. Companies such as these getting involved lends a little more credibility to our industry.

Glad to hear Obrien-Harold! We will continue to work away and let everyone know when we have more solid dates. Appreciate your support.

I bought a DTR-1 from Heartland for $849 and absolutely loved it despite all of its limitations. I was the only person in my high school in 1994-ish who could pull a keyboardless tablet PC out of my book bag. It felt like holding the future. I still remember the feel of the textured plastic case and the fun of pulling the sliding cover off to reverse it to protect the screen during transport. The keyboard was tiny and terrible, but I still kind of enjoyed it. I would probably still pull the DTR-1 out every now and then to play with today but the PS/2 keyboard port broke off the motherboard and the whole thing became pretty useless. Good memories though. Downloaded a lot of, uh... files... from Usenet with the built-in 9.6k dial-up modem.

Look, by today's standards, it sucks but this was space age technology back in 1993. We're talking about an age where desktop computers were considered very high tech devices. Having a device that had a touch-screen, was portable and had a two hour battery life (when most mobile phones couldn't last that much) was extraordinary. Maybe it wasn't built up to proper standards (therefore, being a failure) but the idea behind it, what it could achieve was extraordinary. In 2017, a $25 tablet is better yet in 1993, this was years before its time.

Alan has a book out now called "The Four Pillars of Business Success". I wonder if it makes any reference to this? His LinkedIn profile is rather interesting to look at.

I picked up one of these at a hamfest in 1995 or so, supper cheap. I think I had to track down a suitable power supply, probably from Radio Shack. I managed to get the hard drive running by installing it in another computer and loading up Windows. I'm not exactly sure where I got the Pen utilities from but it seemed to work fine. It became my control center for my X-10 home automation system and worked very well in that role for a few years.

Seems like Dauphin was ahead of their time. They had the right ideas, the technology of the time just wasn't up to the task.

Well as much of a joke as it is today , this is an important PC as it is the first Tablet PC it is amazing to think the technology existed to make a tablet back in 93 when most people myself included did not even own a PC as they were very expensive , here in the UK where im from the cheapest desktops in 93 started at £ 800 i did not get my first PC till 1998 when prices came down to a more sensible £400 lol

I don't know if it was the same or not, but I remember seeing a very similar computer back in 1995 when a group of American technicians came aboard our ship to test some of the onboard ASW systems. Unfortunately my memory of the exact computers is not the best, it's been over 20 years after all.

Watching this video on an iPad Pro with a Smart Keyboard (I bought on eBay for about 75% off the original price) and an (used) Apple Pencil. This nifty little device would have blown away the makers of this back in the early 1990s. The pencil works almost identical to a proper pencil, with pressure sensitivity, everything about it is just great.

Managment used these in "Target", 2006 IIRC

I have one of these computers - no stylus, PS2 keyboard connection has broke, sometimes it simply forgets everything about calibration and date and time and HD and everything. No serial mouse handy means using Windows with my normal PS2 keyboard... but hey, previous owner installed Wolfenstein 3D and is kind of playable.

Man, this was more advanced than my first 386 computer, at least in theory! Had no idea there was a tablet this early on! Thanks for the history lesson, teacher!

First thing that comes to mind is taking this gutting it and making it into a kind of ShadowRun/Cyberpunk Hacker Board.

I've thought, that my 1998 Fujitsu-Siemens B142 was an ultrabook before ultrabooks, but this... It blows my mind.

Always interesting when a company tries to to do something bold like this. Often a bit to early. Within 10 yrs we had cellphones more powerful then this.

i thought the hp LX series of palmtops were were cool for their time because they ran full DOS but the DTR blows them out the water in comparison

Amazing! Dauphin DTR-1 from 1993. This is a piece of history and still works 25 years later. This was groundbreaking technology for the time and in many ways began to shape what is today's cell phones and tablets. For those of you familiar with running a business, it takes a lifetime of experiences to get it right. For every successful business there was likely half a dozen failed ones, and the 'overnight success' that were 5-10 years in the making . I have tremendous respect for Alan and the immense experience he has taken the time to share with me and bring to DNotes.

No problem! Here are a few more resources we recommend:
