If the order of events were different, what might we be calling smartphones? - eviltoast

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.

    The librettos were cute little machines though!

    Also there were those TransMeta Crusoe processors that came after them. Those were way before their time and didn’t take off. Went bankrupt. Now we do that with Intel Atom, or RISC.
