Most people under the age of 35 or so are so dependent on their cell phones that they hardly pay attention to the traditional landline phone that sits by quietly, sometimes never ringing for days. Improved technology including stronger and more reliable signals as well as the many built-in features of smart phones has made the landline phone nearly obsolete among the younger crowd. Among the over 40 generation, landline phones are still popular as people are hesitant to abandon the traditional way of making and receiving calls. If you can get over the attachment to the old way of communicating you can save some money and simply use your cell phone for both calls at home and those while you are out and about.
