22 years ago, you could go into your local RadioShack and buy an organiser which included maybe 1-2Kb of RAM, a 1-2 line by 16 character display, a QWERTY keypad and a BASIC interpreter for between $30-60.
Whilst extremely basic, they allowed very simple, specialised applications to be produced for specialist markets.
Today similar products are available, with PC synchronisation but without the programming capability for between $10-$80. Does a programmable organiser exist at this price point?
