I have a landline for two reasons...1)I'm old fashioned 2)In case of an emergency a landline is worth having over a cell phone.I have Verizon Fios which,it's said,is 100% fiber optic which,if true,might lead to better reliability.

We have a landline for several reasons, both of which you mentioned.

If you have FIOS you no longer have a land line. A land line is a pair of copper wires with DC power running through them. FIOS is fiber optic digital transmission of voice. The box they put in your house reconverts the digital signal to voice. Your phone will last as long after the power goes out as the battery that is in the box.

After Hurricane Rita, (destructive CAT 3 storm), we were very popular since our land line was the only way for many to communicate to the outside world.
