I dunno about that. It's not that I don't understand the tech (understatement there :-)), it's just that I don't see what the heck a smart phone could do for me. They're mostly too big to be convenient to carry, but too small to actually read anything on. (My 10" or so tablet is handy for reading papers & tech docs.) The cameras, for all their megapixels, don't take decent pictures. The GPS doesn't have a dog-tracking function... and so on down the line.
