 Mobile phone - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Mobile phones have a long and varied history that stretches back to the 1950s, with hand-held devices being available since 1983.
Professional mobile radio systems are very similar to mobile phone systems and attempts have even been made to use TETRA, the international digital PMR standard, to implement public mobile networks, but normally PMR systems are sufficiently separate from the phone network to not really be considered phones but rather radios.
As mobile phones become more and more sophisticated, creating the Man Machine interface is getting increasingly complex for manufacturers, and using the phone more and more challenging for users.

 Communications Systems Today - Mobile Phones Introduction
However, the history of mobile phones is considerably shorter and of much more recent origin, starting with the invention of the first telephone by Alexander Graham Bell in 1876.
Since then, the major milestones in telephony are the first transatlantic phone call (via radio) in 1927, the first satellite call made in 1960, the first cellular mobile phones developed in 1978 and the introduction of the GSM standard for mobile phones in the UK in 1992.
The increase in GSM mobile phone users since 1992 has been nothing short of phenomenal.

Most smart phones are great at PIM - personal information management - and offer all sorts of other applications but those things in themselves aren't the defining characteristics.
It should be noted that to many organisations, assuming all OSes work OK with email software such as Exchange and other applications they use, some of which will be homegrown, the user interface may be just as important.
