What an extraordinary question. Surely the whole idea of camping is to get away from it all, not to take it all with you. Personally, i look forward to my camping trips precisely because i don't have to look at a screen at all, (unless i'm lost and consulting my GPS - ahem). Goodness knows, I spend enough of my life 'connected'; it's a perfectly normal and very healthy thing to do to switch off your mobile (or cell phone as you call them), leave all your connections to the outside world behind, and abandon yourself to nature for a while.
You lucky people have a lot more wilderness than us on our crowded island, so switch off the bloomin' Blackberry, iPod, PC, XBox, pager, Game Boy and PDA and leave them all at home: you may just find it enormously liberating. It sure works for me...
