Does this mean using your cell phone for your internet connection? If you have DSL, you have a land line, no? I am thinking of goi the other old fashioned way - land ne only. Call every 6 months to ‘drop’ it, and you’ll find they’ll practically pay you to keep it.

Good suggestion about “dropping” the land line. :-)

There are three ways to get broadband: land line, cable, satellite. We use land line. It costs $27/month for the broadband and has no phone option included in this service. For us and where we live this is the best option for getting broadband.

I think it is time to reevaluate our phone options: land line, cell, Skype, and magicjack. We should probably do a reevaluation every 6 months or so.

It is possible to get along without cell or land line phone and go to Skype or magicjack exclusively. We could buy disposable cell at Wall Mart for those rare times that we absolutely have to have one.
