There was a thread on the subject a couple of months ago on the PPRuNe BB. (Professional Pilot's Rumor Network)

http://www.pprune.org/cgibin/Ultimate.cgi

It included reference to cell phones accidently left on in crew luggage in the cockpit, they appearently do have an effect on aircraft instrumentation, which can be noticed a moment before the offending phone rings for an incoming call! Digital phones have the potential to cause more problems then analog.

Went back and found the thread:
