Your Smart phone

How smart is your phone?
Smart phones...hmm! What is so smart about this phone? How is a smart phone different than a cell phone? Well, mainly because it functions like portable PC. For some, a smart phone is a phone that runs complete operating system software providing a standardized interface and platform for application developers (Wikipedia).

My definition of a smart phone - QWERTY keyboard. I'd like to point out email, Internet, Wi-Fi, VGA connector, large screen. You get the jinx.

Brief history: The first smart phone was designed by IBM back in 1992. Followed by NOKIA in 1996. According to www.cnet.com top 3 smart phones are BlackBerry, iPhone, HTC. Which one do you own buddy?

After close examination I have come to a conclusion that a smart phone is a combination of a cell phone and PDA features. The common feature being Windows Mobile.

Hope these brings light to you if you have ever wondered what the difference is and what all the fuss is about.

Go smart. Go smart phone *wink*
