People will call it as they see it fit. It's bs for a company to manufacture 'chocolate candybars' and spend massive amount of marketing and PR to insist that they're called 'exquisite cocoa blocks' or some such.

(It's even more ridiculous if you connoisseurs start to diss people who will call these things smartphone once they're released and don't get this simple logic )

- 'mobile computer' is a mouthful.
- computers are those things on the desktops. when they're portable, they get the notebook, netbook or smartphone moniker.
- once the n900 is released, it's not going to get the 'mobile computer' label. on the other hand, the 'smartphone' is getting a bump up in feature and capability perception due to its new leader, the n900.
