Scott, I know what you mean about the kids Phone service for the adults begins to deteriorate when the kids come of age.
. We had cell phones only in our house until we went with the phone company for computer service and we had to get the landline to get the wireless router. We hardly ever use the landline, since our cell phone service with A T and T doesn't charge us time if we talk to anyone else on the same service. I think, in the future, there won't be any time restrictions on cell phones since it's getting more competitive. We already get free evenings, weekends and some companies are already advertising unlimited minutes.

I however have a problem paying about $80 a month to the phone company for a service I really done need. I could cut the landline off completely and save about $40 a month and that translates into some real cash. The only reason I do not want to do this is I have a kid and although he's not a phone hog yet, give him a couple more years and the damn thing will likely ring off the hook. So, giving him a cell phone ain't gonna happen. So, the Ooma provides me free local/long distant calls for only the cost of the box. You can get more info at http://www.ooma.com. So, this is purely a cost-cutting measure on my part. If I did not have a child, trust me, my wife and I could do just fine with the cell phones alone.
