Does the iPhone have a pda?

Answer 1

A PDA and a laptop computer share many of the same features, yet they are quite different. A PDA is outstanding for its light weight and portability. The laptop is portable, but is heavier and somewhat more cumbersome.

A PDA is lightweight - more so than the laptop.

The PDA has much less memory.

Another advantage of the small PDA memory is that you have less to sort through when you want to open a program or look up a file. The laptop holds so many files that it takes awhile to find the one you want and bring it up. So, it is a matter of speed versus volume.

Answer 2

Most cell phones have PDA applications on them. There are some phones called smart phones that have more advanced PDA related features. There are also cell phone that have complete PDA systems built in.

Answer 3

are you living in a cave?

the ipad is a totally unique product, and therefore comparing it to a pda is imbessillic and offensive to the ipad

^Learn to spell before you get on your high-horse - especially imbecilic while using the internet that has look-up tools that you can use to check the spelling and meanings of words. Even worse when you are using a web-page that not only has a spell check button on it's toolbar but also has a spell check your answer link right next to the confirmation buttons. Grammar is optional.

I, personally, consider the iPad to be a glorified PDA. The (probably 'ex' by now) Director of Sales, Australia for Samsung also does along with many other consumers.

A number of reviewers have noticed the fact that the iPad is little more than a larger version of the iPhone.

Many reviewers have given it good reviews. Apple said it was 'brilliant'. Even Microsoft have congratulated Apple on it.

I still can't get past the problem of it, like the iPhone having no more functionality than a good 3g phone other than the fancy interface.

Answer 4

Some spartphones are also considered PDA phones, but there are differences between the two. PDA phones do not connect to the internet through a cellular network, whereas smartphones do. Smartphones usually combine the need for a PDA phone and a celluar device.

Answer 5

The iPhone is a smartphone and is actually better than a pda.
