I don't know if their phones are any good, though. Hope so...because unless the Touch Pro overwhelms me, I'll be getting the Oak.

If it does email, web, cal and contacts (and most obviously telephone of some sort) it's a smartphone device. That being said HP's first smartphone devices were years and many devices ago like the 63xx series... maybe even older as I was not into HP's earlier smartphones... So my guess is these emails you've seen have been influenced by HP propaganda, aimed at renewing their smartphone image. ;) Microsoft is the one that started the confusion about what is smart and what isn’t… now they have abandoned that definition and now we have WinMo Std and WinMo Pro.
