One quick follow-up to my post - if you go to the FTC's website using the link that SONNYV provided - and go to the Q&A page for consumers, The answer to Question #10 clearly addresses this issue. They say (which I did not know until a few minutes ago) that it is against FCC regulations for companies using automated dialers to call cellphone numbers. Since most telemarketing companies use them - I think we can assume we are safe - until such time as the FCC changes their rules.
