538: Obama’s Lead Looks Stronger in Polls That Include Cellphones

24. I do.

The biggest reason is that I currently have four land line phones distributed throughout my house (bedroom upstairs, kitchen, office, living room) so that I don't have to run like a madwoman to get to the phone when it rings. If I only had my cell, I would have to keep it on me even in my house or always make sure to carry it upstairs with me and then back downstairs etc. Sorry - way too big of a pain. Plus, I am home most of the time except for when I am at work, so I am much more reachable on my home line than my cell.

My husband and I use TracPhones (which we love). The two of us, combined, spend only about $15 per month on our cell phones. Works for us.

Plus, there is the reliability of coverage and service issues with cells and the fact that you always have to be keeping tabs on your battery level and charging the phone.

I doubt I will ever give up my land line.
