Nomadic Technologies is proud to announce shipment of Accountable for Newton(tm) devices beginning on March 1, 1994. With Accountable, Newton owners will manage their checking, savings, credit card, and even their frequent flier accounts on their Newton MessagePad(tm) and other Newton systems.
Accountable includes all the essential features of an account manager. It is designed to be used during the transaction itself. Record your credit charge while the clerk verifies your card. Enter a debit while the ATM machine is processing your cash request. Get control of smaller expenditures by keeping track of them in a cash account. Reconcile accounts anytime, anywhere.
Demonstration Version ---------------------------
Accountable Ltd., a demonstration version, will be available here around March 1st. Ltd. is exactly the same as Accountable except that it allows only five accounts and twenty transactions per account. Data created in the Ltd. version migrates to the full version of Accountable. The file will include ordering information.
