ISO: Sony "WATCHman"

Was this Sony maybe? In any event at that point in time the display technology was not CRT but some kind of LCD. There was also in the early 2000's a kids toy that had a very low resolution LCD (maybe something like 96x64!) and could play discs or cartridges of some kind. I seem to recall this being reverse engineered by hackers. The issue of "forgotten media" is shared between video and audio and computers and a number of other areas. One of my childhood memories was when my dad got a Mickey Mouse film projector at a yard sale along with some short Disney films. Tim.
