I have a land line. I use my cell phone primarily. Wife uses the land line when she's working from home, but the reason I never get rid of the land line is for 911 emergencies. If the wife or kids dial 911, I want them to know exactly where the call is coming from, even if the family can't respond for some reason.

In my county they have cell phone tracking for 911 calls. I'm surprised that hasn't been implemented more widespread.Originally Posted by kafene

I think most places have cell phone tracking, e911 or 'enhanced 911' for cell phones. It allows calculating 911 calls by triangulation. Read an article that said they can track to within 10 meters or 95% of the person's location. If someone breaks into my house with my girls inside, I don't then to have to calculate anything! LOL. With land lines, the home address pops up immediately and they know exactly where to go & not halve to guess between my house & the four other houses around me. That means cops can have 5 houses to guess. If it's a tight packed apartment housing, it can get even trickier?

actually, i will revise my previous statement. when we do move out, we will have a landline but no long distance or other features. this way we have a hard line into the house, can receive calls, etc. but will use our cell phones as everything else. This should only be a few dollars a month, so no big deal.

OMG AOL "You've Got Mail"
I liked AOL at first but then when highspeed internet came out the platform for it just wasn't needed anymore.
One of my morning alarms is the old dial up tone you use to hear when signing on to AOL lol
