Sorry, I kind of left you some misleading information. The LocalFlavor stuff are *Form* fields (not Model Fields). And, they are specific to certain countries so it may not work for you if your application supports multiple countries. It could be a good starting point for your own custom form field, though. They do include telephone numbers. Judging by the django developer's choice to put that logic in Form Fields instead of Model Fields, it may be a good idea (or at least easier) to follow their lead on doing it that way.
