Goodbye Landline

Today I took the rather large leap of getting rid of my land line phone and using only my cell phone. It seems that over the last couple of years I have used my land line less and less, opting instead to provide my cell phone number because it is always with me. The phone on the wall rang less and less, until eventually it got to the point where it actually startled me when it did ring.

More and more Americans are aparently doing the same thing. According to the FCC, in a study completed in 2005,wireless only users have surpassed traditional land line users, with most of these being persons that live with unrelated room mates.

Contractors are also starting to take notice of this trend, with some building structures WITHOUT traditional phone lines and opting instead to install Ethernet wiring in the walls.

Speaking of cool cell phones, how about this one?

A wireless receiver can be implanted into your tooth with the aid basic dental surgery. The implant can allow a person to receive digital signals from radios and mobile phones, from the privacy of their own head!
