nice perspective.
here in IRAN, we call it exactly Mobile!! and land-line phones are called
exactly telephone. it becomes important when someone asks for numbers.
then it becomes different to ask:
what is your telephone/mobile number?

Slightly off topic, but in various pieces of mobile-related research I've
done over the past few years (in the UK), I've noticed that a surprising
number of people don't know what SMS means. Text message is pretty
