Looks like a plain vanilla MP110 to me. This was the only MessagePad
with that form factor that hadn't the number printed below the screen,
i. e. 120 or 130. The 110 came with a rubber coating like the OMP and
the MP100. MP120 and 130 didn't come with that coating. Probably this
is what the seller means with "Soft touch paint". The 110's model
number, by the way, is 0059. If this beast does in fact have a 1000
as a model number, it's quite an interesting beast because this
was what the OMP had (H1000). Someone should ask for further details,
especially about the sticker on the back.
