Basically any hand held device is a computer built for one or two specific reasons.

iphone(or any other multi talented phone) can access the internet and process data to show you maps and photos.

A GPS calculates where you are at by using satellite then telling you where you need to go.

A calculator simply calculates numbers and equations and gives you a solution.
