General Magic

   A software company based in Mountain View, California.
   Products released in 1994 after four years in development
   include: Telescript - a communications-oriented programming
   language; Magic Cap - an OOPS designed for PDAs; and a
   new, third generation GUI.  Motorola's Envoy, due for
   release in the third quarter of 1994, will use Magic Cap as
   its OS.

   What PostScript did for cross-platform, device-independent
   documents, Telescript aims to do for cross-platform,
   network-independent messaging.  Telescript protects
   programmers from many of the complexities of network
   protocols.

   Competitors for Magic Cap include Microsoft's Windows for
   Pens/Winpad, PenPoint, Apple Computer's Newton
   Intelligence and GEOS by GeoWorks.
