Cell Phones Without Fingers

Description

When outside in the freezing cold temperatures, it not only makes sense but it is a must that one put on a pair of gloves. However given our dependency on cell phones and their constant shrinkage in size, the use of a cell phone with gloves becomes a bit of a challenge. Additional numbers are accidentally pressed when dialing a phone number because of the fabric barrier between your finger and the buttons. This then leads one to removing the gloves to use the phone, exposing the fingers and defeating the purpose of wearing gloves in the first place.
