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.
Even if they wouldn’t go for the name, Walkman was a generic name for this category of devices, at least here in Poland. You wouldn’t go buy a cassette player, you’d go buy a Walkman, not necessarily a Sony made one. So I could definitely see people calling their devices Smart Walkman
I think the main issue is too many syllables
Maybe smartman but that sounds kinda weird
Yeah, it was genericized very quickly.
