What is a smart phone and how is it different than a standard cell phone?
A smart phone is a mobile phone with advanced capabilities beyond a typical mobile phone, often with PC-like functionality. A smart phone includes a cellular telephone and personal digital assistant (PDA) in a single device and allows secure access to email. Some smart phones run complete operating system software such as Palm, Windows Pocket PC, Apple, or Symbian. Others, are simply a phone with advanced features.
