Cell phone question [important]

Sorry if this seems n00by, but I wouldn't ask if it wasn't something that concerned me. I don't own a cell phone, so I don't know how they work very well:
If you call the number of a cell phone that's been broken or destroyed, will it tell you the number is 'no longer in service'? If it doesn't, then what will it say/do?
Here's why I ask. My girlfriend went to run an errand earlier that should have only taken about two hours, TOPS. After that she was going to come straight here, which would take maybe another thirty minutes of driving. It's been nearly seven. She hasn't returned online, which is why this has been eating at me. I tried calling her to make sure everything was going alright, and received that "The number you have dialed is no longer in service, etc." message, so naturally I'm a bit worried right now.
Hopefully I'm just scared over nothing, but this is pretty unusual. And, no. She's not fooling around behind my back or anything. I know this for certain, so there's no reason to question that possibility.
For the record, she's not doing or carrying anything illegal, nor does she involve herself in anything like that. Thanks in advance; I'll let you guys know what happens with this situation.

i'm not trying to worry you but if it was broken i would THINK it would say that.. as my friends is broken and it says that..
however, i do know if you call the same number a lot.. i mean a lot, it can say that. or might not be able to process all the calls or something. maybe call from another number or make sure you dial all of the numbers correctly.
do tell the outcome, if you would.

Thanks for clearing that up, skc.
She just now got back online. She was going to pick up her laptop which needed repairs because they told her they got it in and that she could come get it. When she arrived, the fuckers hadn't put her OS or anything back on it yet, so she had to wait around for a really long time to get it.
Phew.
Time to question her 'bout those damn promiscuous Injuns.

If it said it was no longer in service, either they disconnected her line or you dialed the wrong number.
If a phone is off/broken/person is ignoring you, then it will just ring once or twice and go straight to voice mail.
She was probably busy giving hand jobs to the computer repair techs and you dialed the wrong number. Sorry to have to break the news to you right before Thanksgiving. I know how hard it is to hear bad shit like that around the holidays.
-------------------- Same thing happened to me when I played Neil Armstrong in Moonshot. They found me in an alley in Burbank trying to re-enter the earth's atmosphere in an old refrigerator box.
