Most scout troops will NOT allow cell phones and iPods when camping or at meetings. That is probably the best things, but there are some pluses to having one scout have a cell phone (I never thought I would say it either).
When on a camp-out and the boys are going off as a group without an adult leader, give the SPL or other trusted scout a cell phone (walkie-talkies work just as well, plus you don't have to worry about service). That way, if there is an emergency, a scout can call for help. Just remember to make sure to give it to a trusted scout.
