CLIE(E has an accent mark). It stands for "Communication Linkage for Information & Entertainment." Doesn't it sound kinda wimpy? I'd be embarrassed to say "Oh, I loaded a new game on my CLIE" I thought PEG was better.

Clie? What genious at SOny thought of that? They should have asked a teenager to name the damn thing.

PEG isn't much better either. It reminds me of Peggy in Married with Children

Yup! I hope they change the name when they sell it here, like some Japanese cars' names. Lots of Japanese cars have wierd(almost funny) names in Japan but they change it for American market. Here are some of examples. Can you guess which cars?


  1. Familia
  2. Eunos Roadster
  3. Sunny
  4. Blue Bird
  5. Bighorn




Answer:A=Mazda 626 B=Mazda Miata C=Nissan Sentra D=Nissan Altima E=Isuzu Rodeo
