  Of course not.  More like little handheld wireless computers, which
is exactly what they are.  Transmitting spoken words is fast becoming
a secondary or tertiary function of these things.  Stats already show
that text messaging has become the primary communications means
employed by cell phone users.  I really think that we need to stop
regarding cell phones simply as modern and updated versions of those
old phones of yore that pretty much did nothing more than carry speech
and mostly sit harmlessly on desks as they did so.
