It relies on an internet connect, which relies on power. <br /><br />We are considering getting a cell phone for the house. Funny, huh!

If the power goes out and the phone is reliant on power/internet then :(<br /><br />I've heard mixed things about 'phonejack' I know people that use it a lot but hate it. It's cheaper/easier to get a new phonejack and service than to renew it so they are constantly changing numbers.<br /><br />Technology should make things easier. I think people shouldn't have to adapt to it, it should adapt to the people.<br /><br />I have no ideas what to do. Maybe find a store from the 90's and buy your kids beepers? 2 way radios? Teach them to make smoke signals with a grease fire in the kitchen? Everyone an iPhone?... I like that one. Everyone an iPhone! You all win!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11683203069778700651noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1058746227345835383.post-37653523423981162532012-01-03T13:52:54.696-07:002012-01-03T13:52:54.696-07:00Hey Cody.

We'll probably go with Ooma or a similar VOIP phone to maintain a reliable, findable phone. <br /><br />What other ideas strike you?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05059448249136281333noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1058746227345835383.post-86051809235994529722012-01-03T12:07:31.849-07:002012-01-03T12:07:31.849-07:00Yay!

I've always wondered how people can kick the land line with kids at home. I know that some people use cell phones but in my experience; kids with cell phones don't last too long. The toilet eats the phone, it gets misplaced etc.. I'm curious to know what your solution is? I too don't want a landline but having a phone tied to the wall never gets lost, everyone knows where to find it and you get quality calls from strangers at dinner time!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11683203069778700651noreply@blogger.com
