I had one of the original Casio Cassiopeia Pocket PC's. I remember thinking that it was the best thing ever. I could walk around with information in my pocket. Even had the network card with the dongle for reading my email. Had a 1GB IBM Micro Drive to expand the storage and play music in the car. I remember trying to install Linux on it at one point. Was only halfway successful and then the device bricked and never came back on. It was a great device at the time. But that was 15 years ago.
