Abstract

A cellular phone having two or more unique phone numbers with circuit means for simultaneously communicating with each of the lines. The cellular phone has at least two independent phone numbers with circuit means for differentiating between each of the lines incorporating a feature set for using each of the numbers so that a call can be received on one line while an indicator is actuated for a call on the other line and placing one of said calls on hold while answering a call on another line. The multi-line cellular phone has circuit means and memory for recording and playing prerecorded messages for each of the lines and for leaving messages on each of the lines an indicator means for as to which line is being used with the indicator taken from the list of audio indicator, visual indicator, vibratory indicator or any combination thereof.
