media pad
n.— «One device is a smaller, less expensive calling device described by a person who has seen it as an “iPhone lite.” The other is a media pad that would let users listen to music, view photos, and watch high-definition videos, the person says. It would place calls over a Wi-Fi connection.» —“New Gear from Apple and Verizon Wireless?” by Spencer E. Ante, Arik Hesseldahl BusinessWeek Apr. 27, 2009. (source: Double-Tongued Dictionary)
