I had this shower thought earlier and I actually wanted to post it in that community. The name I came up with was SmartWalkman, but later I realized that Walkman is Sony specific, so I doubt other companies would’ve gone for that name, but I didn’t want to let this shower thought slip so here I am now asking you guys.

    PDA was probably the most common during the 90s and I think until iPhones and android, black berry phones were considered PDAs.

    A lot of stuff in the 80s/90s used the suffix “dex” (after rolodex) so I could also picture something like “mobidex” or “pocket dex”. Or there was netbooks so we might just call them netdex…
