Pope used a "Handy"

Cell phones in Germany are called "Handys," and today Pope Benedict used one to contact a terminally ill nun. Someone in the crowd handed it to him and urged him to speak with the nun, and he gladly complied. This was probably the first time a Pope has used a cell phone publicly!

To all my cell phone critic friends - see, they can be put to good use!

Thanks to Zenit for the story.
