Every phone is a computer. Even traffic lights are computers.

Point is, you don't buy a smartphone to primarily and only phone with it. If you need that, there are tons of good devices out there.

Feature-wise the Nokia N900 is as much a smartphone as a Samsung Galaxy S or Apple iPhone is a smartphone whereas a Nokia N800 or Sharp Zaurus C3200 is not.

However, I don't find the name 'smartphone' accurare for either one of the mentioned 'smartphones'.
