It's never a Psion without that sweet spring-loaded hinge design they developed to contain the double A batteries on most of their PDAs, variations of which were used on the great 3 and 5 series.
It was oddly satisfying just playing with the mechanism, easily one of the most over-engineered parts I've seen on a clamshell style computer.

It was awesome. I’ve worn out a Revo playing with that. But the most over engineered hinge design IMHO have to be the IBM butterfly keyboard on the Thinkpad 701.
