For me, the iphone iis a smartphone. It keeps my calendar, music, email, stocks, weather, maps, internet, sms, and phone. And it backs to my computer as well. Now, I could accomplish 90% of that on a Razr if I was so inclined, but not nearly as efficiently. So, the iphone does something smarter than the average feature phone in execution alone. No 3rd party apps is rough, but I think that’s a fallse standard, since it brings up two questions: 1) How many 3rd party apps do you need to qualify for “smartphone” status, and 2) A Razr could be a smartphone since I could install a whole bunch of Java apps on it, including office and productivity syncing software.

So in my opinion i ti is execution of concept that makes a phone smart or feature, and in that respect the iphone is a very smart phone.
