Dining w/ cell phones

I thought I was a little "old school" in my philosophy for not checking my cell phone during meals because I felt I was in the minority for it, but now there is a game that is gaining in populating that supports my view found here.

Rules:
1--The game starts after everyone has ordered.
2--Everybody places their phone on the table face down.
3--The first person to flip over their phone loses the game.
4--Loser of the game pays for the bill.
5--If the bill comes before anyone has flipped over their phone everybody is declared a winner and pays for their own meal.

Variations/house rules:
-Starting the game after everyone is seated.
-In the rare event that multiple people flip their phones simultaneously, the bill is split between said players.
- Feel free to invoke penalties/strikes systems.

Thoughts on using your cell phone during meals and this game?

Warmly,
Jamie
