I have both. I have to have our landline to have my dsl for internet. But I use my cell phone the most. All my kids and husband have the same cell phone company so we can make unlimited call on our cell phones. I very seldom use the landline but we have to have it in case of emergencies or someone that doesn't have the cell phone number. What about you?

i have both
landline i think is default since everyone is on the site...or else how are they going to visit this site? it's just a matter of using the landline
for calling friends i mostly use my cellphone because of the phone book
but for like business (calling for bills, paying for something, etc...) i use my landline because i sometimes have problem with my cell
and the bad thing about cell is the company you have, you could have a crappy company which doesn't really get you signal (t mobile, eh hem..)
and most ppl don't have a lot of minutes on their cellphone, so that's just gonna waaste minutes

Yes I do have both. that is the same as me I have mine for dsl as well. Yes me and my husband and youngest daughter have the same company so as to receive cheaper calls. But when I need to call someone I do not use the cell phone that much I will use the landline once I am off the computer.

I think the land lines have less rediation so for that reason I do have both. Although the cell phone is more convient it is more advantages to have a land line as well. I have a home business and I need the land line for my fax

I mostly use my cell phone, I know if my landline rings it is telemarketing or something's wrong.

I also have both, i do have a cellphone and a landline as i need it both.
Cellphone is for personally use and even for business and our landline is more on for business.
Have a nice day ahead from Francis.

Yes, if we could figure out a cheap way to keep landline for dsl and nothing else, then that would help budget a lot.
