Sony CLIÉ NR70 Review: What The Future Looked Like In 2002

Despite its resemblance to its clamshell contemporaries, the Sony Clié PEG-NR70 wasn’t a phone. Sony called it a "Personal Entertainment Organizer," but it was basically a PDA on steroids. (In a time when smartphones were still in their infancy, there was a market for standalone personal digital assistants to manage your calendar, memos, and address book.) With this one, though, Sony took a few extra steps –both in feature load and hardware design– and the resulting pocket computer is just as unique today as it was in 2002. Take a look at what the future looked like a decade ago: join us for the Pocketnow Throwback review of the Sony Clié PEG-NR70!
