Wireless Directory
Cellular telephone numbers will be published for the first time in the new, coming wireless diretory. Kathleen Pierz (directory assistance consultant, internal link) say you'll be listed only if you sign up, telemarketers can't use the directory, and numbers won't be published on the net. She has a nice two page FAQ explaining the program here. (internal link to .pdf file)
Privacy concerns? This is an opt in list, but check the fine print in your cellular contract to make sure it doesn't automatically sign you up. Oh, and the Federal Do Not Call List applies to all numbers, wireless and otherwise. So you can have your number taken off at any time. Really paranoid? Use cash to buy pre-paid wireless air time and phones.
