“Pocket-Sized Portable Computer with Telecommunicative Radio Capability” is quite a long name, people would just get tired of saying that and call it by a simpler name.
To pull terms from a couple different sci-fi book series I like, we could go for Hand Terminals or Scribs. I like both, the former when I’m being grandiose and the latter when I’m feeling cute.

Oh wait.
Portable Handheld Omnidirectional Networking Equipment is also pretty long, we could probably shorten it.
Ironically the Brits got this right with “mobiles”. What’s the key characteristic of a cellphone? That it is portable and mobile.
but the key characteristic of a car is also the mobility.

Not if c/fuckcars gets their way.
PSPC w/ TRC lol
