Socialite, actress and model Paris Hilton talks on her cell phone at the Shrine Auditorium in Los Angeles November 22, 2005. Look who's talking! People in Miami and Los Angeles chat on their cell phones more than any other Americans, according to a survey of cell phone use in major cities. People in Miami make and receive an average of 298 calls a month -- an average of 9-10 calls daily -- while Angelenos talk second most, averaging 260 calls per month, a survey of Verizon Wireless users found. Rounding out the top 5 were Detroit, El Paso, Texas, and Las Vegas. "Our study offers an snapshot of how Americans have come to rely on their wireless service every day at home, and on the road," said Dick Lynch, chief technology officer for Verizon Wireless. The East Coast -- particularly New York and Washington -- came out surprisingly low on the list -- possibly in part because hand-held cell phones have been banned while driving there for some years. New Yorkers were 11th and Washington failed to find a place in the top 30. California is also about to pass a ban on hand-held cell phones while driving that would likely cut cell-phone use by car-bound Angelenos dramatically when it takes effect in 2008. (Agencies)

知道誰(shuí)最愛(ài)用手機(jī)嗎？美國(guó)一個(gè)主要城市手機(jī)使用調(diào)查表明，邁阿密和洛杉機(jī)是美國(guó)使用手機(jī)交流最為頻繁的兩大城市。 美國(guó)最大的移動(dòng)通信公司Verizon Wireless在其用戶中做了此項(xiàng)調(diào)查。調(diào)查顯示，邁阿密人平均每月接聽(tīng)手機(jī)電話298個(gè)，即平均每天9至10個(gè)電話；洛杉機(jī)人平均每月接聽(tīng)手機(jī)電話260個(gè)，排在第二。 另外幾個(gè)排在前五名的城市依次是底特律、德克薩斯州的埃爾帕素和拉斯維加斯。 Verizon Wireless的技術(shù)主管迪克·林奇說(shuō)：“我們的這項(xiàng)研究讓人們了解到如今美國(guó)人每天在家以及在旅途中對(duì)無(wú)線服務(wù)的依賴程度有多大。” 而美國(guó)東海岸一些城市的排名竟然出奇的靠后，尤其是紐約和華盛頓。其中的部分原因可能是這一地區(qū)多年來(lái)禁止開(kāi)車時(shí)使用手機(jī)。 紐約排在第11位，華盛頓竟然落到30名之后。 加利福尼亞也將通過(guò)禁止駕駛時(shí)使用手機(jī)的法令，此禁令將在2008年生效，屆時(shí)，洛杉機(jī)人開(kāi)車打手機(jī)的頻率很可能會(huì)大大下降。 (英語(yǔ)點(diǎn)津姍姍編輯)
