                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                  (INFORMATION PERTAINING TO THE PERIODS ENDED
                      JUNE 30, 1997 AND 1996 IS UNAUDITED.)

1.  ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

        Basis of Presentation

        The  accompanying  unaudited  condensed  financial  statements have been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
financial  information and with the  instructions to Form 10-QSB and Item 310 of
Regulation  S-B.  Accordingly,  they do not include all of the  information  and
footnotes  required by generally  accepted  accounting  principles  for complete
financial statements. In the opinion of management,  all adjustments (consisting
of normal recurring accruals)  considered necessary for a fair presentation have
been included. Operating results for the three-month and six-month periods ended
June 30, 1997 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected
for the year ending  December 31, 1997.  For further  information,  refer to the
financial  statements for the year ended December 31, 1996 and footnotes thereto
included in the Company's Form 10-KSB.

        Net Loss Per Share

        Net loss per share is calculated  using the weighted  average  number of
common shares outstanding during the period, with shares of Class A common stock
and  Class B  common  stock  treated  as a  single  class  for  purposes  of the
calculation.  Shares  issuable  upon the exercise of stock  options and warrants
have been excluded from the  computation  because the effect of their  inclusion
would be antidilutive.

        In February  1997,  the  Financial  Accounting  Standards  Board  issued
Statement  No.  128,  Earnings  Per Share,  which is  required  to be adopted on
December  31,  1997.  At that time,  the Company  will be required to change the
method  currently  used to compute  earnings  per share and to restate all prior
periods.  Under the new requirements for calculating primary earnings per share,
the dilutive  effect of stock options will be excluded.  The impact of Statement
128 on the  calculation of basic  earnings per share and fully diluted  earnings
per share for the periods presented is not expected to be material.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S  DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS

Results of Operations
- ---------------------

        For the quarter ended June 30, 1997,  revenues increased 96% to $956,000
from $487,000  recorded in the same period in 1996.  For the first six months of
1997,  revenues increased  $699,000,  or 90% from $779,000 in the same period in
1996.  The increases in both periods are primarily the result of increased  unit
shipments  of TelePad 3  computers.  Sales of the TelePad 3 in the first half of
1996 were  hampered  by the lack of a supply of  TelePad  3s due to being out of
production during a switch in contract manufacturers.

        Cost of products  and  services  sold during the three months ended June
30, 1997 totaled $914,000 (96% of revenue) compared to $442,000 (91% of revenue)
in the same  period  in 1996.  For the first  six  months  of 1997,  the cost of
products  and  services  sold was  $1,362,000  (91% of  revenue)  compared  with
$738,000 (95% of revenue) in the comparison  period.  The second quarter of 1996
included  product related charges of $318,000  recognized in connection with the
shift in manufacturers and restarting production in a new facility. Gross margin
percentages  in the second  quarter of 1997 are reduced  from the same period in
1996 by a combination of not having service revenue in the current period, which
has higher  margins than hardware,  and pricing  pressure on TelePad 3 computers
which contain a 486 microprocessor. The Company has announced that it is putting
586  microprocessor  technology  into production  resulting in downward  pricing
pressure   and  reduced   gross   margins  on  TelePad  3  computers   with  486
microprocessor technology.

        Research and  development  ("R&D")  expenses for second  quarter of 1997
were  $317,000  compared  to  $552,000  for the same  period  in 1996.  This 43%
decrease in R&D spending was due primarily to nonrecurring charges in the second
quarter of 1996 for engineering work required to startup  production at Sanmina,
the new  contract  manufacturer.  This  reduction  was  partially  offset by the
increased cost of a slightly larger engineering staff, which was increased after
the  first  quarter  of 1996,  to  facilitate  a shift in  emphasis  to  product
enhancements  and to the  development  of new  modules to broaden  the TelePad 3
product line.

        Selling,  general and administrative expenses for the quarter ended June
30, 1997  decreased  7%, or $86,000,  from the same period in 1996.  For the six
month period,  selling,  general and administrative expenses increased $177,000,
or 8% from the same period in 1996.  The  increase  in the six month  period was
primarily  the result of  increases  in selling  expenses in response to the new
supply of TelePad 3 units and the addition of personnel  and space to expand the
Company's capabilities.

        Interest  income in the second  quarter of 1997 was $66,000  compared to
$186,000 in the  comparison  period.  This  reflects the  investment  of the net
proceeds  of the  secondary  public  offering  completed  in April  1996 and the
subsequent use of cash in operations.  Interest expense and amortization of debt
issue costs in 1996 were related to  outstanding  indebtedness  that was retired
with the proceeds from the second public offering.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------

        Net cash used in operating  activities  was  $3,040,000 in the six-month
period ended June 30, 1997 as compared to $4,298,000 in the comparable period in
1996. Net cash used in operating activities in both periods was primarily due to
the net losses incurred in each respective period. Accounts receivable increased
by $282,000 in the current period based on increased  sales whereas in the prior
period collections  exceeded increases in accounts receivable and this increased
cash by  $134,000.  Other  current  assets  in the  prior  period  increased  by
$558,000,  primarily as a result of an advance  payment of $608,000  made to the
Company's  new  contract  manufacturer  in April 1996 to start the  transfer  of
production from the former contract  manufacturer.  Accounts payable and accrued
expenses  were  reduced  in both  periods  and the  reductions  in both  periods
primarily  reflect  payments  to  the  Company's  contract  manufacturer  in the
respective period.

         In the  six-month  period ended June 30,  1997,  cash used in operating
activities was primarily funded by a reduction in short-term investments whereas
in the prior period cash used in operating  activities  was primarily  funded by
the completion by the Company of a public offering of its securities.

        On April 3, 1996,  the  Company  completed  a public  offering of 20,000
Units. Each Unit consisted of 285 shares of Class A common stock and 1,000 Class
D  warrants  and was sold for  $1,000 per Unit,  pursuant  to which the  Company
raised  $20,000,000.  The net  proceeds  to the Company  from the Unit  offering
amounted to  $17,779,000.  On April 25,  1996,  the  underwriter  exercised  the
over-allotment  option to purchase an additional  3,000 Units  pursuant to which
the Company raised an additional  $3,000,000.  The Company received net proceeds
of  $2,736,000  from the exercise of the  over-allotment  option.  Cash was also
increased by the proceeds of a note payable from an  individual  investor in the
amount of $750,000.

        On April  25,  1996 the  Company  paid  $4,268,685  to repay  $4,000,000
principal  amount of outstanding  promissory  notes and accrued  interest in the
amount of $268,685.  On May 1, 1996, the Company paid $825,000 to the individual
investor  holding the $750,000  promissory note to repay the $750,000  principal
amount and $75,000 in interest.

        "Safe Harbor" Statement under the private  Securities  Litigation Reform
Act  of  1995:  The  statements   above  which  are  not  historical  facts  are
forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties,  including, but
not limited to, demand for the Company's  products and market  acceptance risks,
the effect of  economic  conditions,  the  impact of  competitive  products  and
pricing, product development,  commercialization and technological difficulties,
capacity,  and supply  constraints  or  difficulties,  the results of  financing
efforts,  and other risks  detailed in the  Company's  Securities  and  Exchange
Commission filings.
