Here's some history from Wikipedia:
As the personal computer became feasible in the early 1970s, the idea of a
portable personal computer followed. A "personal, portable information
manipulator" was imagined by Alan Kay at Xerox PARC in 1968, [6] and described in
his 1972 paper as the "Dynabook". [7]
The IBM SCAMP project (Special Computer APL Machine Portable), was
demonstrated in 1973. This prototype was based on the PALM processor (Put All
Logic In Microcode).
