I personally haven't used a land line since forever ago... my fiance likes to use it to call family - cheaper long distance rates... but i'm looking to see if a LD plan on cell phone would be cheaper than house phone+LD plan...

using a cellphone isn't that bothersome for me - but i can see it draining battery life. Using the landline handset to get cell phone calls (via blue tooth while cell phone is charging) sounds reasonable and comfortable i guess...
