What was the first touch screen phone?

hmmm. the earliest ones I can recall immediately were actually the original iPAQ's which had a GSM sleeve with which you could make phone calls and you dialled the number on screen

btw, sleeves were the accesories for the original iPAQs, and the iPAQ slid into the sleeve and gained that functionality (and extra bulkiness!)

but... I'm fairly sure there was something earlier than that too...
