What younger people use their phones for
Using the phone as a replacement for exchanging written notes in the class room is a nice one. It's even less easy to spot, and it also works between class rooms etc.
Actually I designed Jiminy! SMS for this very application, but a Bluetooth chat application would also be interesting as it doesn't cost anything to communicate.
Tele2/Comviq now charges 0 (in whatever currency) for SMSs sent within its network. That means SMS is a better choice than Bluetooth provided both sides of the SMS "link" has Tele2/Comviq.
