Update: cell phones (See what I'm talking about)
HoustonChronicle.com - Keeping in touch might be difficult during Rita: "'Whether towers are damaged or not, if power goes out, the towers will be affected,' said Janee Briesemeister, a senior policy analyst at Consumers Union. 'If there's a power outage for any extended matter of time, the towers just won't work.'"

Also, they made mention in this article that text messages are much more likely to go through than calls. Unfortunately, text messages can't be automatically forwarded from one of our phones to another, so while their delivery is more robust, it is not assured (depending on which phone we're using). Just FYI.
