America Unwired

The Economist's recent article on the condition of the life remaining for landline telephone service is sad. The article starts off like this, "IF YOU want to save money, cut the cord. In these difficult times ever more Americans are heeding this advice and dropping their telephone landlines in favour of mobile phones."

There are basically 16 years remaining for the landline telephone. The article states, "one in four households has now gone mobile-only. At current rates the last landline in America will be disconnected sometime in 2025." If you ask anyone under thrity what their home telephone number is, you are most likely to get the enaswer, "this is my only number."
