Haven't had/used one at home in almost 2 years. I see no reason to ever have one again. Anyone else totally done away with their landline?

Not in 4 years.

only reason I had one in my old house was for DSL.

I do. I am on the phone a lot, hard to hold my cell up for a long time, and never found a bluetooth headset thats worked well...

Vonage is still a landline in my eyes. It can only be used in the home.

I guess I should have phrased the question "Who only uses their cell phones now?"

i had a landline for the first year i had this place, the power company said they'd take care of everything. and they took care of everything in the most expensive way possible. i had the 150/month time warner bill for a year, then when my "special" went away, i killed the landline. been since about november without one.

got 2 cell phones though

cell phone only for 6 years

what?

I've got the Comcast digital phone, only because it's part of their Triple Play promotion. I'd like to get rid of it if I could, but my cable bill would shoot up from $99 to $189 if I did (they hooked me up with the premie HD & DVR package for no additional cost when I signed up).

When I move away from DC to Tennessee later this month, I plan on checking out the MagicJack that Joe mentioned. $20/yr for something that lets me have unlimited minutes is worth it. I hate wasting my cell phone minutes on hold.

my parents got rid of ours in 1998 when they both got cell phones.

my neighbors freshman year got dsl so they had one...if that counts i mean

3/9/2008 5:17:09 PM

prolly just because my flatmate won't get around to getting a new cell phone and hers could die at any moment
