Today's USA Today has the full-page Portfolio ad on 11A:
 
                  Actual Size
             (picture of Portfolio)
                  Actual Price
                    $399.95

It goes on to describe the system, the RAM cards ($79.95 for 32K) and
other accessories, including the $49.95 parallel and $79.95 serial
interfaces that aren't available until October. There's a 30-day free
trial. The toll-free (USA, I presume) number is (800) 443-8020. They'll
charge your credit card for the merchandise plus $8.50 for shipping
(Federal Express).

Judging from the "Actual Size" photograph, this definitely is a machine
for two-fingered typing. The keyboard makes the Trash-80 look generous.
