My friends refer to theses as "pocket calls". I have a buddy who made  
a great piece from one that was a conversation from a moving car. Lots  
of great background noises that were filtered in strange ways and the  
conversation was chopped in such a wacky way. I don't know what he did  
with the track - I'll have to dig it up.
