Remember the huge power outage in the NE a few years back? All cell phones couldn't work. Evidently, the connections to the satellites need power! It was really a change for many of our younger folks who live on their mobiles.

The only time a landline is needed is when the electricity goes off, you can still use your phone. But I still have mind just for that reason and I have dsl and can dial up if my dsl needs assistance.
