Just had another one - Richter 3.6 - at the same place as the last ones in Berkeley.
One item to keep for earthquakes is washwater (in addition to drinking water). I fill a couple of five gallon water jugs with tap water and put in a few drops of bleach to keep algae from forming.
As far as phones go, most likely the cell system will be overloaded, so having a land line is handy. If you have a fancy cordless phone system/message machine, etc., make sure you have a plain old dumb (non-ac powered) phone to plug in.
One of those nice topographic atlas map books would be handy if you might have to walk somewhere.
