I am guessing it would be cheaper to get rid of the cell phone and keep the land line and a computer. I don't know for sure, I don't have a cell phone. .

I still have my telephone that hangs on the wall.

I was forced to upgrade several years ago to the
modern wall phone when my rotary phone
finally gave up the ghost.

It's not one of those fancy remote ones that you can pick up
and carry around the house with you.

You have to stand right there by it when you want to talk into it.

I seldom get any tele-marketers calling me as the
Federal No Call program worked very well for me.

I am actually surprised when my phone rings which is not very often.

I don't have a cell phone, never have had a cell phone,
and never will have a cell phone.

Life is good.

I not only miss home phones, I miss party lines.
Life was simpler, and better back then.

I know of an outdoor pay phone.
Surely a trap.
