Launched in 2000, the Cybiko is a youth oriented hand held computer and organizer. It was not a cell phone, but rather a two way radio device that incorporated text messaging capabilities. Like a Palm Pilot, it required the user to use a stylus. It is unique in the fact that its utility is limited to a maximum range of .19 miles. After only two generations of the device, it was discontinued, but has had sporadic revival attempts made my the manufacturing company.
