Help me to identify this piece of equipment

[Chaos Master]

Hello people.

My friend has this device (it does not work), that can be seen at:

http://www.arbornet.org/~neguinho/unknown.jpg

It has LCD, alphanumeric keyboard. It is made by Hitachi, and has some Intel
microprocessors/microcontrollers inside. No FCC ID.

He thinks this is a PLC device (programmable logic controller), but it's
unknown.

Question:

Does someone here know what is this device?

Thanks.

What is the part number on the microprocessor/microcontroller?
Is it an 8086, or something else.

Does it have any connectors to interface with other devices? If
so, what type are they?

It is a *handheld* device with internal battery; no way can it have an
actual 8080.
Looks like a Rolodex clone or language translator or language
dicctionary.
Like i said, only worth the parts.
