I DO understand modern communication technology. I conduct/participate in customer meetings daily and worldwide via various online meeting products with and without audio, sharing CAD 3D models online across multiple monitors, skype to our India office, using IM at the same time to communicate to other participants in our company while the meeting is ongoing.

When you're in the middle of a business meeting talking directly to someone and they look down at their phone and start typing away, that's rude. It's also rude to answer a phone call in the same manner. Just today, I was in a meeting and discussing a project with an engineer when his phone rang, he held up a finger to me while I was in mid-sentence, answered it and said "hi, how was your morning? I'll call you later". I picked up my laptop and walked out of the conference room.
I think a required course in HS should be "Cell-phone etiquette"
