Brainstorming about cell phones

Hello all,

In preparation for a talk at LSA, does anyone out there have some
suggestions about how cell phones might be used as a means for the
dissemination of language information? A colleague working in The Congo,
where cell phones--and not the internet--are everyone's main link to
technology, is wondering how the language activists in her community might
tap into them as a maintenance/revitalization resource (no pun intended).

Any suggestions you have are welcome--no idea is too outrageous to mention!

Thanks in advance,
Andrea
