Lets Review…Lets Review…Smartphone: “A device that lets you
make telephone calls, but also adds in features that you might find on a personal digital assistant or a computer.”
It can’t do everything a PDA or computer can do, i.e., run large/complex programs
But it can do many things that they can’t because it is has microphone, camera, gps, accelerometer data inputs and it’s mobile (fits in your pocket or purse).
