I read that after the Bali bombs this weekend that they shut down the cel phone network ASAP and, finding unexploded bombs, credit this with preventing more carnage there. So maybe that's SOP everywhere nowadays in situations like this. Makes sense.

Cell phones are frequently used as detonators.

Would make sense.
