1. A method of receiving a phone number, comprising:
- establishing at a first phone a first voice communication session between the first phone and a second phone;
receiving voice signals from the second phone during the first voice communication session;
transmitting voice signals to the second phone during the first voice communication session;
receiving, at a receiver of the first phone during the first voice communication session between the first phone and the second phone, a phone number transmitted from the second phone by a user of the second phone after the first voice communication session is established;
detecting the phone number with a signal detector of the first phone coupled for communication with the receiver of the first phone, the detecting the phone number with the signal detector comprising;
receiving a first user input activating the signal detector after the first voice communication session is established and prior to the transmission of the phone number from the second phone; and
receiving a second user input deactivating the signal detector subsequent to detecting the phone number and prior to termination of the first voice communication session; and
