Do you have a Land Line? Or only cell?
 
I have not had a land line for 5 months and I've been using my Cell as my only phone. So far it's been great but the only issue was once I forget to charge it. No biggie though.

nofx 01-24-2005 10:47 AM

my mom is the same way, she got rid of her phone land line and only uses her cell. seems to work great for her.

xsivforce 01-24-2005 10:48 AM

Haven't had a land line for over 3 years and haven't missed it. Cell only.

Harmon 01-24-2005 10:48 AM

I tried not having a land line, but I felt lost. Got it back...

Undisputed1 01-24-2005 10:49 AM

cell only here

jt420 01-24-2005 10:49 AM

i have to have a land line for dsl, but the house phone isnt even plugged in because i use my cell so much

Babagirls 01-24-2005 10:49 AM

i have both, but i actually keep my landline phone unplugged all the time & just pay the $15 a month to keep it activated.

too many fuckin annoying calls come in everyday, and im sick of the answering machine goin off & having those tellamarketers, car salesman (for when i was lookin for a car last year), etc etc filling up my machine.

the only reason why i havent disconnected it (yet) is cuz we're (me and the boyfriend) not sure if we wanna keep the # or not.

i love my cell phone, cuz i know that EVERY time it rings, its actually someone i KNOW calling me, and not some phone spammer lol

quiet 01-24-2005 10:49 AM

i only use a cell. i travel all over the place, so it's just stupid for me to give out a land line number to anyone. the only reason i have them anymore is for faxing.

Playful Me 01-24-2005 10:50 AM

Its been over a year - only time I miss a land line is when my cell overheats.

sickkittens 01-24-2005 10:50 AM

I have both and I'm proabbaly going to get rid of my land line.

candyflip 01-24-2005 10:52 AM

I have a cell and a digital phone line. No telephone company based land line for me.

LaurieX 01-24-2005 10:54 AM

I only use a cell. The only people that ever called my land line were solicitors YUCK!

kiana 01-24-2005 10:55 AM

What kind of cell do you have? I have a samsung vga1000 and sometimes for no reason it gets so hot when I'm on it I feel like its going to burn my cheek... It rivals my aluminum laptop after hours of being on... I don't get how it could get so hot. I think someday its going to blow up on my face.

I haven't had a landline for over a year now, all I would get is telemarketers and wrong numbers. Anyone that knew me would call my cellphone. Plus I get long distance!

xclusive 01-24-2005 10:57 AM

I have both but I do use my cell phone a lot more than my landbased line.

coolfuck 01-24-2005 11:01 AM

i have both .. but i will leave me only the cellphone

collegegirlvids 01-24-2005 11:03 AM

I've had my cell only for over a year now... don't mind just having it at all..

NinjaSteve 01-24-2005 11:04 AM

I was thinking of Vonage in the future though becasue of the long talks using long distance. I've gone over minutes only a few times. Now I have 1500 anytime minutes, free long distance, and the backup internet connectin incase cable goes down.

axelcat 01-24-2005 11:04 AM

I need a land line

DEA - banned for life 01-24-2005 11:05 AM

have both..what a waste..im cancelling my home line this month...

rowan 01-24-2005 09:35 PM

Sounds like you guys have capped plans... not so lucky here. :( We moved and it took about 6 weeks to get a phone line installed, so in the meantime we had to use our mobiles (cells). Because we had just moved into a brand new home I had a heap of companies to call to sort out fencing, blinds, etc. Even though I'm on a business plan with 'reasonable' daytime rates it added about $AUD400 ($USD312) to our next bill.

Mobile calls are a ripoff here. Kids are going into debt before they've even finished school.

shermo 01-24-2005 10:13 PM

I have both, but I never use my landline.

Pornwolf 01-24-2005 10:32 PM

I have both.

Eve 01-24-2005 10:33 PM

Is a landline one of those things with the wire thingies?


Cell only.

NaughtyRob 01-24-2005 10:34 PM

Land line for home phone, land line for ads in the paper only. Cell and office phone.

reynold 01-24-2005 10:35 PM

I have both. :winkwink:

kush 01-24-2005 10:38 PM

kind of hard to send/receive faxes without a land line...

baddog 01-24-2005 10:39 PM

both here

Draychi 01-24-2005 10:40 PM

Cell phone only here. Fucking sales people call too much. One phone is also good....... have two phone... have twice as many people bothering you. :thumbsup

Spunky 01-24-2005 10:41 PM

Need one for the dsl and a cell

DWB 01-24-2005 11:53 PM

I dumped all land lines because 9 out of 10 calls were freakin' telemarketers and it was wasting too much time. Now I have 2 cells... 1 for the US, and one I take with me overseas that I change out the SIMS card in.

Been running this way for over a year with no problems.

One thing you may want to do is get an extra batt if you cant remember to charge your phone. I make a habit of plugging it in every night right after I brush my teeth.

bdld 01-25-2005 12:23 AM

no need for land lines anymore.

Indica 01-25-2005 12:26 AM

i have both.

bangman 01-25-2005 12:31 AM

No cell here. I don't really ever leave the house, and I would think it would be more expensive to be using a cell for calls than a landline. I'd love to switch to Vonage to save me some money but my connection seems to go down a lot.

How much on average do you all pay for your cells?

emthree 01-25-2005 12:44 AM

only way I could live off cells ... is if I had at least 5
Its hard mixing family, friends, work, random people, bitches, hoes, skanks, fags etc etc

Sosa 01-25-2005 12:48 AM

cell only

Vitasoy 01-25-2005 01:25 AM

I use my land line for my dsl.

wargames 01-25-2005 01:33 AM

Both. :)

Magg 01-25-2005 02:03 AM

All 3, land line, cell phone, and vonage lol

flashfire 01-25-2005 02:06 AM

land line and no cell, probably the only one but I hate cell phones

psyko514 01-25-2005 02:41 AM

I was cell only for about 5 months. But I got a cheap VoIP line for my house last February. I haven't had an actual land line since Sept. 03.

wdsguy 01-25-2005 02:45 AM

Just a cell

d00t 01-25-2005 04:00 AM

land line using it for FAX and the odd local call...

hova 01-25-2005 04:08 AM

I have both, but I hardly use the landline

Rui 01-25-2005 04:52 AM

Both, but like hova don't use the lanline for anything, except my ADSL connection nowadays

Herb Kornfield 01-25-2005 07:22 AM

I have all forms of lines here at the command center.

1. Landline - faxing and we have a golf course across from us that kills the cell signals at times in the house so we have to use that for backup when needed. Plus, the phone company provides all my voicemail, caller ID and we joined the "do not call list" that got rid of all telemarketers.

2. Cell - Old tmobile deal that I got 10,000 minutes for $99 a month when it first came to my area. I signed up for 3 years and havent had a SINGLE overage again. My wife used to run the bill thru the roof with overages before we had this plan. Its not even offered anymore from what Ive seen.

3. VOIP line - my 100% Biz only line that came in with a nifty Cisco 7906 phone. The performance for me is lacking when the network here slows down (cable modem 3mbps package for my home office) I've had a few calls drop off and had to break out the landline again.

MandyBlake 01-25-2005 07:34 AM

tony and i have 2 cell phones and a vonage line.
vonage rocks

Peaches 01-25-2005 07:42 AM

I still have 2 landlines and a cell.

My cell cuts out too much for me to feel safe with it and 911, alarm calls, faxing, dial up on the lap top when the power (DSL) goes out, are all concerns.

I'm a wuss :)

AnaNicole 01-25-2005 07:55 AM

Cell phone only!!!!

:thumbsup :thumbsup

XxXotic 01-25-2005 08:00 AM

just my cell which I rarely use. I loathe the phone
