We are at the same place as you. Trying to figure out whether to give up the home phone or not. Our problems seems to be that I leave my cell phone in my purse most of the time, and really can't hear it if it rings unless I am close to the laundry room, where I keep my purse. My daughter and her family gave up their land line and she says they haven't missed it at all. I sure want to try it.
