Could somebody find some sources for this? I've never heard a great deal of the slang terms that are purported to come from the US. 71.213.70.49 09:55, 18 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Uruguay

movicom is no longer a term used in Uruguay, the anecdote is valid, right now celular is the most common word or celu, wich is a diminutive.

[edit] Just Phone?

In Australia most people have them, some even over landlines so we just call them phones, should this be added? andrewrox424 Bleep 08:00, 3 September 2007 (UTC)
