Digital HiNote
- ... that the thin Digital HiNote notebook was advertised on TV by pulling it from an envelope in the early 1990s? https://www.wired.com/2008/01/dec-hinote-the/

Digital HiNote Ultra
- ALT1:... that Digital pulled their HiNote Ultra laptop out of a manila envelope on television nearly 15 years before Apple? Source: "Valleywag, via an anonymous tipster, reports that the "manila envelope" reveal for a small laptop is far from new. DEC, if the tipster's memory serves, used the same wowser technique to show off a HiNote Ultra—almost 15 years ago. This thing looks somewhat ungainly now. But it was, as the ad copy tells us, only an inch thick." (Wired) DigitalIceAge (talk) 01:26, 8 October 2021 (UTC)
There are several citations to PR Newswire which are promotional articles from the company per WP:PRSOURCE. I think these are not ever acceptable for DYK, but this did pass a GA review so I will ask for input on the DYK talk page. SL93 (talk) 06:50, 20 October 2021 (UTC)
