Juli again:
Yes that may be right, but a camera is an item both
used by the muggle and wizard world, so it works, the
cell phone on the other hand is an strictly muggle
device, remember Arthur can't even say Telephone (he
says Phelytone or something like that)so I don't think
it could work (I don't know a lot about electronics
but I do know a cell phone is much more complicated
than a camera). Even if it worked, do you think the
average wizard will lower him/herself to that? I doubt it.
