- johndrinkwater 14y agoYou’re not even wrong, there were quite a few PDA+mobile phones many years before the iPhone. Sony Ericsson’s p800 & p900 series was even referred to as PDA Phones.
- damian2000 14y agoI remember the O2 smartphone running some form of windows about 2005/06.
- tzm 14y agoAh, yes I remember (and forgot about) these devices. Had one myself. I also remember nearly everyone else had no idea what it was and really didn't care. They were cost prohibitive for the mass market.
- rpeden 14y agoThe Treo 180g was a cell phone and a PDA with a touch screen and no physical keyboard. In 2002. http://www.hardwarezone.com/articles/view.php?id=372&pg=0 http://www.hardwarezone.com/articles/view.php?id=372&pg=...
- voyou 14y agoThat's nonsense. Ericsson released a combined PDA/phone in 2000, and PalmOS based PDA/phones date back to at least 2002.
- slantyyz 14y agoThat's funny, because I had a couple of "pda phones" before I bought my iPhone.
