We had the cell network go down when an earthquake knocked out the poser for the whole island. Landline still worked.
I refuse to walk around with a cell, do not expect to need it. Does sit in my car for emergenciy calls.
Of course, I do not "do" iPhag smartphones or need whatever all those cute little icons are for. Everyone else seems totally zombified by the damn things, so I stay out of the loop.
