This is misleading. The Engineer was known to be surrounded by
cellphones all the time. Many of his closer supporters would take calls
for him on their phones and hand the phone over for him to talk on. This
is why the ploy worked. No real way to notice that his "regular" phone
was exchanged for a new shiny one with a bulging battery pack or somesuch.
