- nxsynonym 9y agoI think "connected" would be a good replacement term. Smart implies some sort of intuitiveness or responsiveness, which is often not the case.
- duncanawoods 9y agoNot bad. Could go further and call them "dependent" to make it unambiguous that they are not standalone devices but out of your control and potentially worthless if the connected services close or fail.
- jlgaddis 9y agoThe Marketing Department would never approve using that term!
