Distributed in the United States only by BellSouth Cellular Corp between
August 1994 and February 1995, the IBM Simon Personal Communicator, a
handheld, touchscreen cellular phone and Personal Digital Assistant (PDA), was
the first "smartphone," though the term was not coined until 1997. The phone
operated within a 15 state network; about 50,000 Simons were sold.
"In addition to its ability to make and receive cellular phone calls, Simon
was also able to send and receive faxes, e-mails and cellular
pages. Simon featured many applications including an address book, calendar,
appointment scheduler, calculator, world time clock, electronic note pad,
handwritten annotations and standard and predictive stylus input screen
