I’m aware of one!

I have a “Q” in my collection that originally came from Maurice Sharp.

It’s marked as Engineering Verification Test (EVT) unit both on the case and the barcode.

The front of the case has “EVT 2” printed where the “MessagePad” name usually appears.

Let me know if you’d like to see other photos of this unit.
