Katherine 0 #26 May 16, 2006 Mobile only, but thats because I don't really have a home (uni halls). Much prefer using a land line though (so so much cheeper), looking forward to having one next year.Leeds University Skydiving Club www.skydiveleeds.co.uk Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

skymama 37 #29 May 16, 2006 I have both. I like to have one to get ahold of my kids if they are at home and I'm out running around. They both have cell phones, but they don't carry them from room to room all the time. In addition, when the 3 hurricanes came over my house 2 summers ago, the cell towers went down and the electricity went off. If I had not had my landline and $10 phone, I would have had no way of communicating to my family in town. I'm going to keep the landline.She is Da Man, and you better not mess with Da Man, because she will lay some keepdown on you faster than, well, really fast. ~Billvon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sharimcm 0 #30 May 16, 2006 I have both. I was going to the cell phone only thing, but I just can't seem to bring myself to talk on my cell phone, drain my battery, get crappy reception, drop calls, etc. when I am at home. The calls I make at home are on my home phone unless they're long distance.

Peej 0 #31 May 16, 2006 Cell only. I've been living with friends for the last few years and after my first house had a land line over which there'd ALWAYS be fights over the bill, i've never done it since. Advertisio Rodriguez / Sky Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bodyflight.Net 0 #34 May 16, 2006 Kids are the reason I have a landline... every month I look at my 3 bills (Cingular, BellSo & At&T) and think.. I should get rid of something... but then I imagine kids friends calling our cell phones all the time & I think... no way.. totally worth it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ChangoLanzao 0 #35 May 16, 2006 I guess it's been about six years since I switched to cell-only. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LisaM 0 #36 May 16, 2006 We have been cell phone only for 4 years now. My son is nearly to the age where he can be home alone... we saved our old phones for him when we get a third line. ~ Lisa ~ Do you Rigminder? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Avion 0 #38 May 16, 2006 I have both. But my home phone is a VoIP phone, on which I get unlimited calls to USA, Canada, and Western Europe for under $25/mth. Cheers, BW Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

psw097 0 #40 May 16, 2006 Sprint forces the landline on me to have DSL. I went without a land line for awhile and was using Navini wireless internet - off a cell tower but it started getting popular and they wouldn't upgrade the infrastructure and got slow as dial-up during peak hours. I had to switch to something and cable is not available in my area. Sprint DSL was the only real option. I'm happy with the internet service but that $35/month extra for the landline is hard to swallow especially since the first week I had it I was travelling for business, didn't give the number to anyone and had 27 messages from telemarketers when I got home. The ringer is not even turned on now. Land lines suck, paying for one just for internet sucks worse. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
