Is it on? Have you called your phone? If it's on, maybe someone will answer the ring. I'm so sorry...hope it's found quickly.

If I found a cell phone, and there was no way to ID the owner, I'd call the numbers on his address book. Someone would recognise the number and tell me who to contact. Although Pooh's idea is also a good one.

I know what it's like to lose a cell phone. Only thing with me was it happened when I put it in the pocket of my swim trunks while I took off my shirt and forgot to take it back out before getting in the pool! Duh! Anyway, I do hope you get it back soon and in the mean time I'll be sure to shout real loud if I need to call you!

I use a name labeler and printed my name on the back of my cell phone. I figured if someone found my phone and called someone on there they could at least say oh I just found Missy's phone....

I put a "contact" in my contact/phone number list that says:

"Call if found"... when you call that "contact" our other cell phone gets called.

It's worked for me already!

Hi Philnpat,

Please report it to your phone carrier just in case someone is "ringing up" charges. Hope you find it and please let us know.

Check with the Villages Entertainment Dept right next to Box office behind movie theatres. The crew that picks up the chairs and cleans up the square turn stuff in there.

My cell phone dropped out of my pocket at the square. I realized this as soon as I got home and called my number several times. Eventually, one of the guys answered and we arranged for me to pick it up from Entertainment office the next day.


Good Luck.
