Whether in a restaurant, in a queue somewhere, walking around the supermarket, on public transport (my favorite), or anywhere else that strangers find themselves in close proximity to each other.....

3. Ive heard that 50% of people on cell phones in public
are not actually talking to anyone. Its just a "look at how important I am" thing.

4. sometimes it means you're forgetful
I got a call from my brother while on a bus, and what started as a simple coordination of travel plans degenerated into my whining about my boss. It was a minute before I realized that I was practically screaming on the bus and needed to disembark at the next stop to continue my rant.

People take cell phones too seriously, if someone had politely pointed out to me that i was being rude, i wouldn't have been offended, it's just that when you're focused in on one thing you forget your surroundings.

5. I voted for the "Look at me" option...
but the "I'm insane" option was strongly considered.
