Sometimes I wish I had something to warn me when I am with someone with a cell phone so I can know that we are going to be interrupted.

Of course before I recommend anything I try it out so I picked up the phone and it asked me what I was looking for and what city and province. I chose details and was given the street address and phone number and I still had the option of having my call put through to the store number. You can use google to get similar information.
