I don't think all smartphones are portable desktop devices, but all portable desktop devices with calling features are smartphones. They are multitasking computing platforms with cellular telephony capabilities and native application frameworks. Many of the features it lacks that people claim make it not a smartphone postdate the arrival of smartphones. So please get off the gas...
My definition is how applications are designed and centered around. IPhone is a smartphone since its apps and design is around a phone's usage. While a tablet is more PC oriented apps. The tablets and n900 have both PC oriented and smartphone UI apps.
