I've seen an Acorn Pocket Book - from sight it looks almost identical to a
Psion 3a - just a few cosmetic differences. I also recall there being some
technical differences - maybe with batteries, mains adaptors, or pc serial
links, i'm not sure.

In the 15 minutes I had to play around with it several years ago I don't
remember that it did have BBC Basic - otherwise I'm sure it would stick in
my mind and i'd have tried to get hold of one! I think it probably had OPL.
