This is Issue 114 for March 1985 of Gadget, "the newsletter for grown-up kids", sent to Dick by a listener. Its 12 pages were filled with wonders of 1985 gadegetry, 23 years ago. It had news of Sony's new 1-pound CD Player for $300, Canon's PC-20 Photocopier for $1,095, and Kodak's Kodavision "lightweight" 5-pounder 8mm video recorder for $1,900, and for an extra $300, you could get a timer/tuner for the Kodavision. Other gems included a dental mirror, Intelliwriter, and a speakerphone.No Letters Today
No letters today, but perhaps Dick is still looking for the letter from the listener who kindly sent him the Gadget Newsletter for the Gadget Warehouse.
