In general terms, a Smart Device is any device that is smart.

Brilliant. Just brilliant. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.198.23.108 (talk) 22:26, 4 July 2009

... and rephrased so it doesn't sound so daft. Astronaut (talk) 17:42, 7 July 2009 (UTC)Reply

It is still wrong. Sam Tomato (talk) 03:29, 22 August 2015 (UTC)Reply

That might seem obvious but the person that wrote the current first sentence does not understand. The current first sentence defines a smart device in terms of communication capability. A device can be smart without any communication capability. The definition should be in terms of the presence of intelligence, not communication. There should be a reliable source for that definition. I will find a reliable source before revising the nonsense. Sam Tomato (talk) 03:29, 22 August 2015 (UTC)Reply

I confirm that the definition is far from being right and complete. There is a definition for common public devices containing some intelligence and there is another for industrial devices containing limited intelligence (when too complex or roughly computer like they are called "Computer Based Systems"). I will comme back on this page when I find reference commonly accepted. Moreover, there may be another domain with another definition. I will tell you later.--Shinfacts 08:36, 15 February 2019 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Shinfacts (talk • contribs)

Someone appeared to be bullet point happy as they wrote this. Should we try to clean that up a bit?
