And where are the other mobile phones to go with it..whats the point of being the only person with a mobile.

I love these stories, just a much as I am loving the white gloves.

What is sad is they make these stories up because someone out there will believe it.

One of the ET's phones obviously, couldn't find where he had left it because he never installed the "where is my phone" app. :P

So now they are presumably looking for the cell phone towers to match ?

A mobile phone would be quite useless without any infrastructure, so this is once again one of those hoaxes that have not been very well thought out. :no:
