I have had a look at the various resources on the internet, but I am unable to find out how many of each of the models of the Psion Organisers were made. It's there somewhere.
Does anybody know how many of each model were manufactured, and how many of each of the versions of each model were manufactured or could you point me in the direction of this info.
Thanks
Matt

I’ve never seen any figures, and it would be very interesting if there is a record!

Re: How many of each model made
Below is an extract from Dave Woolnough's original PSION Organiser II (ORG2.com) web site where he writes..
'Considering that more than 500,000 series II Organisers were produced, there must be many people still using this wonderful machine.'
And I'm sure I read in one of the PSION News leaflets (or maybe ipso facto) a celebration of the number of Organisers produced. But I can't find ot now.
That's my two penn'orth

EDIT found it (as always.. when looking for something else)

These republished notes are taken from the 'meet them' pages of the web-site
The original ORG2.COM later to be replaced with PSION2.org web site was launched by Dave Woolnough in October 1996 and was dedicated to the Psion Organiser II range of hand held computers. In the summer of 1997 Jaap Scherphuis joined as Software specialist and soon became fully responsible for maintaining the web-site on a day-to-day basis. In Spring 2002 Boris Cornet volunteered to take over as site maintainer/editor and later that year launched the Organiser II User Forum.
The web site was deemed necessary because since the introduction of the Series 3 / 3a / 3c / 5 and Siena, Psion PLC has almost ceased their support for the Organiser II, the 'Psion Organiser II Homepage' was created to correct this situation!
Considering that more than 500,000 series II Organisers were produced, there must be many people still using this wonderful machine.
The World Wide Web pages were for those of who would not give up the old, but very trusty CM, XP or LZ. There you could find information and software for the complete range of Psion Organiser II computers.
I hope, those of you who visit these pages will contribute information and not only download programs but also add them as well, programs which you have either written or acquired. Without your help these pages may not survive! Dave

There was the 500,000th edition outer case manufactured. It is on Jaaps site. I think I sold him that one!
