David, I think that my research may be of interest to you.
I am a social psychologist that has investigated the social meaning of public mobile phone use. I have written a chapter in Rich Ling and Ped Pedersen's new book: "Mobile Communications". My chapter is entitled: "'Suprisingly nobody tried to caution her': Perceptions of intentionality and the role of social responsibility in the public use of mobile phones". Feel free to contact me off the list if you are interested in knowing more about my research. katie. Kathleen M.
