What do you think your favourite character's texting style is? You know, give Tiax or Aerie or Mazzy a phone, and teach them to text... what do you think their text messages would look like?
I feel like Imoen would be one of those people that dumps emoticons all over her messages, and also sometimes replies with .GIFs.
Meanwhile, Khalid's texts would be very neat, very tidy, properly punctuated... and he'd freak out if you didn't reply right away. "Are you okay?" "Where are you? Do you need someone to talk to?" "Do you need me to call you a taxi?"

"Yes Dear, I'll pick up a gallon of milk on my way home. Back with you in a sec, I've got to help Charname kill this dragon..."
edwin, a super intelligent red wizards of thay agent, would probably hack the other party members cellphones infecting them with a keylogger that send to the red wizards central all their messages.
jaheira would probably also refuse it seeing it as a not natural artifact, but i am not so sure about it.
the other npcs probably would put it in their backpack and never use it, why they should text people that are very close to them when they can actually talk to them?
any way the cellphones would only work trough a bluetooth connection as in the fr there is nor internet nor a cell phone net, and if it is not possible to charge their batteries with some electricity based spell, that more likely would destroy the phones, once the battery is gone they would become useless, no way at all to recharge them.

then i hear minsc shouting: "boo, i told you a million times to don't touch my cellphone!"
Ugh, yeah, Xan would totally be the King of Vaguebooking. Then, when he does reply, it's just a "k". And if you ask him what's going on, he's just going to go, "There's no point in discussing this, you wouldn't know what to do.".
Of course they could be recharged - just sell them to a shop and buy/steal them back again

Nalia sends ppl death threats

"KAREN IF YOU SEND ME ONE MORE MLM REQUEST I WILL END YOU! I WILL END YOUR FAMILY! I WILL END YOUR FAMILY'S FAMILY!"
i cud see tiax being really annoying and fat-fingiering things and not useing proper punctuation or spelling and when hes getting defensive U CAN TELL BECOS HES USING ALL CAPS
Quayle would just be the text message equivalent of a message board jerk.
She also gave an anonymous tip to the guards in the Government district, something to do with Jan Jansen's flashers.
Yesterday she texted to my charname: "hey, remember that there are potions of thievery, that can stack, but there is no potion of magery and i am one of the best mages in the game".
