This is worth much less if you have a cell phone, though). Just some thoughts.
I would add the following to this one:

Preparation Required (to account for the need to make the phone call)

Takes Extra Time (to account for the time for said contact to either arrive or get away from what they're currently doing)

Maximum Duration (this contact has a life of their own, they cannot be at your beck and call for long)

Gadget or Accessibility (to reflect the requirement to get to a phone?)

How would you model the fact that the contact cannot get away from what they're currently doing?? Accessibility?? Frequency of Appearance??
