Help Slate set some ground rules for cell phone etiquette.

Slate "...the key consideration is the phone's potential for distraction: Is it taking you away from the people around you? If so, put it away. I find it very difficult to concentrate on pretty much anything else while I'm engaged with my digital device. That's why I won't text at the dinner table but I will on the couch in front of the television: If you're already distracted by the TV, the phone isn't changing anything."
