    Yep, cordless phone refers to a domestic phone, what I meant is that we use specific words for specific phones. I haven't heard anyone say "mobile phone" in Cali yet, but I will keep my ears perked. I don't think anyone refers to satellite phones as "mobile phone", but I don't claim to be omniscient

    Wiki proves me wrong

    Mobile phone
    A term covering cellular phones, satellite phones, and any phones giving wide-ranging mobility, used in most English-speaking countries. In some English-speaking countries such as the United Kingdom and Australia, common usage refers specifically to phones using the cellular network.

    Ну вообще-то мы, здесь, тоже так делаем - называем "телефоном" и мобильник и стационарный телефон.
    In Russian, all nationalities and their corresponding languages start with a lower-case letter.

    В начале, в Москве говорили "сотовый телефон", теперь "мобильный телефон", "мобильник". "сотик" широко не прижилось.

    Потому что у обычного телефона главная составляющая часть - это трубка В которую говорят.

    Not a pipe.
    I think better is a tube (or a funnel?).




    A gramophone also has труба (funnel-shaped speaker).
