Jakob Nielsen, the User Interface guru, has a funny entry in his Alertbox.
Bystanders rated mobile-phone conversations as dramatically more noticeable, intrusive, and annoying than conversations conducted face-to-face. While volume was an issue, hearing only half a discussion also seemed to up the irritation factor.
It is interesting to see that the study in question is from the UK. Whenever I am back home in London it drives me a bit nuts to see all of the phones and the damn polyphonic rings. When my 7 yr old cousin has a mobile..... what the hell is going on! :)
