Textual Electronic Devices or 'Teds', affectionately known as 'Edwards'. Some people will, of course, take this a few steps further - in which case they may be nicknamed : Teddies, Poohs, Bears, Cuddlies and somesuchlike derivations. This, at least initially, may cause much confusion. Thus, asking a young lady if you can look at her 'Bear', may not be appropriate. Similarly, telling your friends that you borrowed your wife's new 'Teddy' may get you some strange looks from your buddies. Also, telling anyone that gazing at 'Pooh' for hours on-end is one of your favourite pastimes, is probably not a good idea. However, telling your loved one that you'd like to share a 'Cuddle' with her may get you some kudos.
