Marshall's Amazing, Colossal andMarshall's Review of the
Royal ELinea 16

The Elinea 16 is most similar to the OZ-800 in the Sharp Wizard
lineup. Here is a scan that compares the size and appearances
of the two units:
As you can easily see, the screen size of the ELinea seems to be quite
a bit larger than that of the OZ-800. Here is a scan, with the 800 screen
imposed over the top of the Elinea screen.
However, looks can be deceiving. The keyboard of the OZ-800 is below
its screen, and thus occupies NONE of the screen. But the keyboard of
the ELinea is ON the screen, and takes up quite a bit of space. Thus

at first glance. Here is a scan of the ELinea screen showing the
keyboard, and the icons at the top of the screen.
The best Wizard Organizer is the OZ-770. It is interesting to note
that the screen area on both the OZ-770 and the ELinea 16 is precisely 42
square centimeters, though they are different shapes. The useable screen
area on the Sharp OZ-770 is nearly double of the ELinea 16. Here is a scan:
