I guess that's how we'll have to think of it in Italian. Come to think of it, when we say,"I'm on the phone" in English, we're not actually sitting on top of the phone. That's probably a funny image to Italians learning English. :)

I suspect that it is simply that, in English, we talk 'on' the phone, in Italian they talk 'at' the phone. :)
