Ask HN: What should we call phones as they stop being used as phones?

Cell/mobile phones are being used less and less as phones, and more as portable mini always-connected computers. There have been dozens of names thrown around in sci fi and similar, from Pads to Tabs and Decks to Slates.

What's you're favourite/preferred idea for a new for these devices that have taken over our lives?

No goals or motives. Just a thought I had as I realised I barely make/receive more than a few calls a week these days.
