Well, they're talking about banning cellphones in the classroom much to the kids' frustration. I say, it's a good idea. Why the hell do you need one in the classroom for? That goes for iPods and Blackberrys as well.
I say, you can use these devices outside school time (lunch, recess, before and after school) but not during.
And not just limit to the classroom but hospitals, restaurants etc etc. Be polite, turn off your damn devices so you don't distract other people.
HANG UP OR SHADDUP!!
