Personal Hand Operated Networking Equipment

Cell phones and smart phones are more than simple telephones yet we still call them phones. Rather than suggesting a new name I suggest an acronym. Have a better one?
Hand me my personal hand operated networking equipment (phone) so I can call your sister.

A social phenomena occurring when a group of two or more people, who should be socializing, are all on their phones resulting in a momentary or prolonged silence.
I should be talking to my girlfriend over dinner, but instead she is instagramming on her iphone and i am defining "phoning" on urbandictionary.com. What a date. #phoning #2016

When the conversation slowed to a lull, we started phoning and pretended like we didn't know each other.

When I looked up from sending a text I realized all 7 of us were phoning and no one was talking.

"Look at that couple phoning over there. I wonder if they are sexting each other."

A small personal device that people use WAY too much. They do many things and can communicate at anytime. People that have phones often spend way too much time on it and might even get addicted. Most people love their phone as if it's their baby.
Ya man I've been on my phone all night.
