I have been considering getting a landline for this purpose but have yet to convince myself to do it because it seems like a wasted bill. I would probably never use it unless I was conducting a conference call or doing an interview....and who wants to pay a $40 bill for a couple of calls a month? @ Scott

The problem? Cell phone service just sucks. It is tough to maintain a connection and the voice quality is poor. There is far too much demand for too little wireless space. I understand the argument, but I tried cell phone only and the cell phone service -- from that same iPhone provider -- failed. Add in fast DSL with the phone service and all of a sudden things start to look a little better. Who wants to do interviews on cell phones? I recently went back to a landline and a cell phone.
