Let them use it ... I once had a disussion with an electrical engineer who told me the odds of a cell phone interfering with radio communications are about the same as winning PowerBall. If the majors have decided it's OK for you to use it on the ground during the post-landing taxi, the odds must be even less.

Unless you start beating the captain over the head with your cell phone, it's very unlikely it will interfere with safety of flight.
