back when their primary use was calling, it was like torture to go anywhere because every 5 seconds a random phone would ring. now that people use their cell phones mostly for texting and web browsing, life is better, though it's still slightly annoying to see everyone looking down at their phones.

Cell is a microprocessor architecture jointly developed by a Sony, Toshiba, and IBM alliance known as STI.
Cell is a shorthand for Cell Broadband Engine Architecture, commonly abbreviated CBEA in full or Cell BE in part. Cell combines a general-purpose POWER-architecture core of modest performance with streamlined coprocessing elements which greatly accelerate multimedia and vector processing applications, as well as many other forms of dedicated computation.
The major commercial application of Cell is in Sony's upcoming PlayStation 3 game console which is slated to launch in November 2006. It will also become available in a blade configuration from Mercury Computer Systems. Toshiba has announced plans to incorporate Cell in high definition television sets. Exotic features such as the XDR memory subsystem and coherent EIB interconnect appear to position Cell for future applications in the supercomputing space to exploit the Cell processor's prowess in floating point kernels.

A person that is addicted to their cell phone checking it compulsively multiple times every hour or every minute - even more urgently when the phone boops or blips a notification.
Fred is so cell whipped...he can't go more than a minute without checking his phone.
A neurotic condition whereby a self-important person has the need to answer a cell phone call or continue a cell phone conversation regardless of the awkwardness of the situation or location where the call is taking place.
Airport restrooms are great locations for observing cell whores and this odd behavior.
Skip is such a cell whore, he took a call from his office, walked to the men's room, did his "business", flushed, and walked back to his office. All this and he never missed a beat. He kept the conversation going, except he did not wash his hands.
A guy filled with energy with his cells having expanded 10-100 times their original size He usually fills roads, and airports single-handedly.
Look at that massive fat cell. He is a moving roadblock filled with energy. He takes the road.
Small silver block that characters on detective television shows,all the CSIs, and "House" pull out of their pockets when the writers can't get off the bong long enough to come up with a better plot device. This cube magically give the characters the next surprising clue which allows the story to dangle or move to its surprise ending, depending on how close to the end of the hour it is. See DNA EVIDENCE
Plot direction:
Caruso:I'll see you in hell/jail/syndication.
(reach into pocket for cell phone) Caruso (pause, adjust glasses, or draw back sport coat to get good handle on waist). I'm coming in.
Peripheral Snarky CSI Staffer: Who was that?
Caruso: They found-the murder weapon/killer/a time slot for CSI Des Moines.
