Does he supply to you or the other way around? If he is the supplier I'd say take this up with your boss and say that if he pays that little attention in meetings then what service can you really expect from his company.

I apply the same rules when I'm out with friends. The mobile stays away unless I really have to take a call - then I apologise in advance and keep it brief. I'm sure a friend doesn't mind if I have to take a call from someone that is genuinely important, but just playing with your phone the whole time you are out with people is unacceptable. If Stuart does it when we are out for a meal he gets a right b011ocking unless it's something like on holiday and we are looking up where to go the next day!
