Re: No More The savings are essential to me. i purchased the 29.99 unlimited calling with skype for a year in two months of landline. My cell phone is metro pcs which has unlimited calling nationwide, provided you are in the state. that service costs me 49.99. the little 15 dollar a month landline wouldnt do me any good as most of my friends all have cell phones with area codes that are all over the nation. If i really needed that so called life line ill just power up my ham radio!
There are ways around using a landline phone, and my life doesnt revolve around a telephone, so in the event i dont have telephone service for a few days it surely wont kill me, hell it might be relaxing.
I think i speak for about 94% of college students in florida (hurricane central) that cell phone only is way to go.
Might i also add that in the event of a hurricane it is very common for land lines to go out as well, so your theory of that always on safety and security is blown out of the woodwork | |

If I have cellular and land service, that's two things that must fail instead of one. Your idea of breaking out the ham might not be bad either, though the density of ham users in your area might not be sufficient for you to reach capable help. Nonetheless, it's an option to which I've given some thought in the last few days. | |
