Since we are on the subject of smartphones, allow me a few moments to share a few interesting facts about them:

• Smartphones are mobile (cellular phones) that feature technologically advanced functions that frequently imitate those functions which are available in your computers.
• The cell phone industry has not distinctly defined nor has it set parameters for smartphones and so their features may actually vary considerably and different vendors define them differently.
• Some claim that smartphones must run complete operating system software.
• Others claim that any cellular phone that provides e-mail, Internet and eBook reader capabilities is a smartphone.
• Still others claim that smartphones must have all of the above features as well as built-in keyboards, external USB keyboards and VGA connectors.
