Crossword Genius

Mobile phones, yet for novices (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

neophytes

'novices' is the definition.
(neophyte is a kind of novice)

'mobile phones yet' is the wordplay.
'mobile' indicates an anagram.
'phones'+'yet'='phonesyet'
'phonesyet' is an anagram of 'NEOPHYTES'.

'for' is the link.

(Other definitions for neophytes that I've seen before include "Novices" , "Newcomers" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
