If I'm being serious, I call them "handhelds". (I kind of liked "palmtop" (by analogy with desktop and laptop) but it never took off and so sounds funny.) I would usually make a distinction between something like my Palm Centro (which is a general-purpose computer which can play music) and an early-generation iPod (which can only play music). The former is a handheld computer, the later is a music player. -- Ben _______________________________________________ gnhlug-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-discuss/
