Is handset a cellphone?

When I charge my phone it gives a message "Phone Charging, Handset is off", so I guess they have come to mean the same thing.

To me, a handset (or receiver) is the part of a telephone you lift to talk and listen. I'm a little behind the times, though.

Tang, I admire your curiosity; while Rog is doubtless right on

Thanks to both of you.

Fraid Tang I mightn't have helped much. But you esl fellas should be glad we have this a2k w/ all them xperts

I think it's "... all theses xperts."

Pon, forgive an old fella but I'm not quite sure that was a serious q or ur just pullin' my leg
