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?

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."
