Cell phones i imagine would be relatively easy to get. Buying a used one from a pawn shop or getting an unwanted phone from someone on the cheap or free. If one had access to wifi then having a working SIM card would also not be needed, but i imagine that getting a pre-paid account is doable. The main issue i see is getting reliable access to a plug to charge up at odd hours, i have heard of instances of security guards or police harassing homeless people sitting at a spot that had an outlet.
