We’re going to try and do this once a week to reminisce on some of the gadgets of way-back-then that helped shape some of the things we use now. First up? The Motorola StarTac Clip-On organizer! This clipped on to the back of your StarTac and gave you full PIM synchronization. You could even tap an entry in the address book, and the phone would dial it! Not much now, but way back then, this was hot. Some of the more cool stuff? It used an internal battery which didn’t drain the actual phone battery, you could flip the layout of the screen from left to right, and you had those oh-so-cool symbol buttons which you’d use to set a password and lock the organizer. Come on, you know you had one!
