Sort Of Technical Question For Clever People....

This is bugging a few (obviously bored geeks, and me) people at the moment.

Telephone keypad is set out as-

123
456
789
*0#

PC Keyboard is-

789
456
123
0

Any reason for the difference?

Thankyou, in the meantime, I will go online
and try to purchase a life.
