Why are our mini-computers called smartphones?

RE: Why are our mini-computers called smartphones?
I got a new phone a couple of weeks ago, after the wife ran the other one through the washing machine. First time I've let her launder any of my clothes in over 20 years. I use the phone and the camera. The rest of it is superfluous bullshit, until I need it. The internet is useful on occasion, if I need to find a place I've never been to before. That happened once. If there are games on it, I don't know what they are, and don't care. The only reason I have it is because my $30 burner phone from Target wouldn't hold a charge anymore. I used T-Mobile pay-as-you-go, as I only wanted it for emergencies, not to sit at intersections texting or talking manamanamanaheeheehee instead of driving off when the signal goes green.
If you get to thinking you’re a person of some influence, try ordering somebody else’s dog around.
