Dear {Name},
I apologize for using my cell phone during {class/meeting/etc.}. I have become too reliant on electronics for my news, internet and social media, and it made me oblivious to the fact that I was acting in a rude and disrespectful manner.
I'm sorry for violating your policy concerning cell phone use and I understand why you asked that it be removed. I understand that I was distracting others and not giving your {event} the full attention it deserved.
I know that a cell phone is only for emergencies in a professional setting and from now on mine will remain on silent and put away at all times. I'm sorry for any inconvenience I caused you.
Sincerely,
{Your Name}
