Where I live cellphone signal is iffy at best. Its a good plan to have at least one of the old phones around somewhere.

I have cordless phones, so I'm cut off when the power goes out. But if I shut down everything but the DSL modem and the wireless router, and the laptop is fully charged, I can squeeze in a good three or four hours of fast wireless internet. The last couple of times, I reported the outage on the Georgia Power Web site.
