I have a landline number - but no phone plugged into it.  I can use it if there is an emergency, but other than that - it's just for filling in forms that require a valid phone number.   The cell phone is all we really use.

How many of you just use a cell phone now.  Do you have a land line phone?  Most people are opting out of a land line and using cell phones only. Which do you do or do you have both?  Answer can be:  Have both, cell phone only, land line only or none.
My answer is I have both
I have both, but recently found out that in case of a power-outage,you will need another phone. I had a fuse-link blow up and start my field on fire. The bad part was when I lost power, I could not use myceel or land line. The power surge did something to my cell which was charging at the time. NOt a good time to be without a phone when your field is on fire. Lucky for me people stopped from driving to help and called the volunteer fire dept. and my neighbor called the electric company from her cell. My driveway was a fire break so it did not get close enough to my home to cause any damage. My sister-in-law gave me an old plug-in phone that is not wireless, which will work when you are without power. Just something to think about!

We finally ditched the landline.  When the service providers offered a plan that did not bundle the land line into the package with the internet service and cable tv service, we got rid of the land line.

I actually find both a land line and cell phone still are useful.

Cell phones only. I can have my phone with me at all times. Everyone can get that way,  I don't make a lot of calls on it either. But it is sure nice to be able at anytime to get important calls. Bigggest reason is my dad If something goes wrong i know right away and handle what ever it is.

Cell phone only. I'm not home enough to make having a land line worth the money. However, I am considering hooking up a basic phone for 911 purposes, just in case. I will probably also consider a land line one of these days when I have kids. Gotta be able to get a hold of the babysitter.
