Another description would be a square device that is slightly bigger than a cell phone that has cell phone like keys and many more rubber buttons (if 
you have the icon).

Hi,
A PDA without a screen makes sense.
Also, giving a guess about the size might help and that there is a large phone number pad on it with a remote control like up/down left/right arrow 
key.

Did yours not come with the shoulder strap?
That would be a drag if someone walked off with it thinking it was cool 
looking.

Good luck,
Richard

        Is there anything on an Icon that identifies it as such?  Also, if
you had to describe it to someone sighted in 5 words or less, how would you manage it? Despite all my best intensions mine disappeared last night and I've been trying to ask around about it...no one's seen it and I'm worried I 
might be describing it wrong.  Is "PDA without a screen" a reasonable
description or should I take a different tack? And some advice as a result 
of this:
1) Back up daily. You never know when you might need a contact and can't 
get to your icon (e.g. dead battery or disappearance.)
2) Identify the Icon as yours; put a label somewhere in/on the case with 
contact info etc.
I swear if I do find the thing I'm making a neck rope for it...too much of 
my life is in that thing.
