Which of the following is an example of a personal digital assistant?

A personal digital assistant (PDA) is a handheld device that provides personal organization capabilities and typically includes features for managing contacts, calendars, tasks, and notes. The Palm Pilot is one of the most iconic examples of a PDA, representing the early evolution of these devices designed specifically for personal information management.

While a smartphone, tablet, and laptop computer can perform many of the same functions as a PDA today, they encompass broader capabilities and features beyond the standard organization functions typically associated with PDAs. Smartphones include telecommunication features, tablets provide larger screens for productivity and media consumption, and laptops offer full computer functionality suited for complex tasks and applications. In contrast, the Palm Pilot was specifically designed to serve as a personal assistant, reflecting the core characteristics of a PDA without additional functionalities that are characteristic of modern smartphones and computers.
