&lt;p&gt;Everything we say on a cell phone can be heard. unless your land line is physically tapped. &lt;/p&gt;

But I dislike AT&amp;amp;T enough to think about going back to riding the train to work. It is only $13 dollars a week and would still be cheaper than getting a Landline. &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;When the total bill hit 49 doolars and I use the land line no more than 5 times a month I said enough is enough. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Thye are begging people to drop them, &amp;nbsp;maybe they make more on other ventures.&lt;/p&gt;

I have been with them for over 8 years and just today ordered a new phone. All of my friends have ATT or Verizon and they always complain of bad signal issues. I never have any problems with signal and have never had a serious equipoment issue. I use my cell phone as my primary contact besides email. I have a landline, but never give out the number. I can&amp;#39;t remember the last time that I actually used the landline other than for my tivo service. &lt;/p&gt;

The phone was free and I only pay $30.00 a month for all including long distance to other countries. I will NEVER go back to a landline. Also I think there is a converter box you can get for security alarms. ADT offers one. gaffneydo@hotmail.com&lt;/p&gt;
