You may have already considered these things but here goes....


I too have thought of getting rid of the landline mainly because of all of the extra fees.

But here is what I considered in my case. If someone calls me it's a free call vs. a fee on a cell phone. So if you talk to friends or family for at least a few hours you might not came out ahead...also 1-800 calls.

I read about magic jack and i think you have to keep you computer on for it to work??

Also I forget the site I was looking at but magic jack seemed to be REALLY problematic for a lot of people.

But with that said if you could get it to work for $30 a year it would be a great savings.

After thinking about it in my case the landline was still my best option I thought.

I'm probably the minority on this though!
