The Cordless Phone...Not yet obsolete No, they're not dead yet. While cell phones are all the rage the cordless phone still holds its own in certain areas. No, you're not going to be taking one to the mall or on a trip. It'd be pretty useless there. But in the home, they're sweet. For one, your home phone bill, connected to a landline, is likely to be a fraction of the price of your cell phone plan. it's also nice to be able to see the buttons on the phone. Sure, the cell phone is cute as a bug's ear, and the cordless phones just aren't, but being able to push the buttons with youir fingers instead of a pencil point is rather nice. It really is archaic to actually plug a phone into the wall, isn't it? Until your batteries run out. Again. While a cordless phone handset is battery powered it recharges everytime you put it back in the cradle. You DO put your cordless handset back when done, don't you? It's also much harder to misplace the handset of a cordless phone than it is to lose one of those tiny little cell phones. Not that a credit card sized phone isn't cute... It's just less practical for in home use than a cordless phone. Then there's the issue of cost. With a cordless phone you have enough room for all the bells and whistle without having to miniturize everything. This allows for major cost savings on the hardware. Sure, you can get a cell phone for free, Let's Talk has a ton, but you're tying yourself to a phone plan for that free phone. Lastly, a land line tends to be more clear and static free than the wireless, but then again... youi're not going to be able to carry the land line with you everywhere.
