7 digit dialing....and cell phones

I was out by Summit Point today, which is on the Va/WV line. I was seeeing a sign on the side of the road for some pizza shop with only 7 digits for the phone number. I don't know if that was in the 703 or 304 area code. Cell phone reception out there is kinda bad anyway, but it got me wondering..do cell phones work with 7 digit dialing? We've been on 10 digit dialing before cell phones were in everyone's hand. If so, how would it work. My phone is in the 703 area code, it what if I'm travellig somewhere and need to make a local call. Would it know if I was in the area code/local and just connect me?
