The New York Times, January 4, 1996. "The Psion Series 3a is the Jaguar XKE of electronic organizers".
Byte, May 1996. "Psion's Series 3a shines with its Windows applications. If you consider seamless Windows support a necessary lifeline linking a PDA to desktop, you should take a look at Psion's Series 3a. Its larger and simpler QWERTY keypad makes for more accurate hunt-and-peck typing".
Personal Computer Monthly, UK, May 1996. "The 3a is an outstanding machine. This is a device which you can pick up and use in a few seconds, but which can be adapted to almost any task with the available software. The 3a deserves its reputation as the best PDA on the market."
Computer Shopper, UK, April 1996. "Our Labs' Psion has endured a pretty tough time over the last 18 months without any complaint. In our view, the Psion deserves a reputation for robust reliability - the diary and task tracking software is highly competent and the Psion computers are a delight to use."
PC World, USA, October 1995. "Moving data back and forth between a handheld system and a PC has always been a pain. Printing from a handheld has been at least as aggravating. That's about to change with the release of Psion's new utility software, PsiWin, which makes Psion's Series 3 and 3a lines of handhelds the most usable on the market".
MicroTimes, USA, April 1, 1996. "...one of the most easy-to-use, useful machines...the Psion also packs more built-in functionality than a lot of PDAs. One of the great things about Psion is the tremendous amount of free- and shareware available".
MacWorld, UK, January 1996. "It [Psion Series 3a] contains all the key information I need, wherever I am and whatever I'm doing. It runs for months off a couple of AA batteries and when I'm at my desktop computer it sits nicely between the keyboard and the screen.... Although I love the Mac and tolerate other computers, the Psion 3a has gradually become the hub around which my life revolves."
What PC?, UK, January 1996. "But don't mistake the 3a for just another personal organiser. The built-in applications are fully fledged versions, comparable to those you'll find on many desktop Pcs. The Psion's screen is very clear, and just about every aspect of the Psion's software can be customised to suit your requirements and taste. A great all-rounder. Its vast range of software sets it apart and an elegant user interface makes this machine easy enough for anyone to use."
Computer Life, UK, February 1996. "It's not difficult to see why the Psion 3a is the top selling palmtop. The software is well put together with a superb diary, sophisticated word processor and spreadsheet...you can buy masses of other applications ranging from serious stuff like the Act! contact manager and AutoRoute Express journey planner down to games. The 3a is also an effective communicator. You can access on-line services via communications software, and using Psion's own PsiWin software, the 3a will talk to a PC intelligently. For all these reasons, the 3a ranks as the best palmtop around."
PC Direct, UK, May 1996. "The Psion Series 3a boasts an easy-to-use interface, supports multitasking and has many connectivity options. Installed as standard is perhaps the strongest word processing application in the PDA business. Together with the Qwerty keyboard's first-rate feedback and large 80-character by 17-line display, the word processor's stylesheets make the Psion the best for word processing. It is also notably strong at spreadsheet work and scheduling, and boasts one of the largest libraries of third-party and shareware applications of all PDAs."
The Mac, UK, January 1996. "I was seduced by this world-beating British-designed personal digital assistant (PDA). And it has proven itself to be reliable - when I tap notes into the Psion I know that I can read them straight away. The Psion can also talk to your Mac and vice versa. Psion made sure that the Series 3a is fully extensible and designed to cope as your needs expand... I've been using a 512k Series 3a for over a year and would be completely lost without it. Instead of having hundreds of bits of paper everywhere I put virtually all the information I need into my Psion. Yes, I am proud to be a Psioneer."
Daily Express, UK, 15th January 1996. "The Psion Series 3a organiser must qualify as the world's best miniature computer - a palmtop miracle - with a word processor and spreadsheet capabilities."
