Believe it or not, there are still a number of people not yet ready to leave their landlines and become cord free. Their argument is strong as well. Landline phones offer clearer voice connections, an option for the caller to leave a message, the ability to connect to high-speed Internet, and there is unlimited talk time.



Good thing telephone companies have stepped up their wireless plans to meet its landline counterparts. There are now more services available in a mobile phone such as the ability to send pictures (MMS), text (SMS), and e-mail. Voicemail and broadband Internet access are also starting to become standard in a common mobile plan. Finally, there are already plans whose available talk minutes are designed to fit a range of consumer's communication habits in a way that they do not realize they have a pre-set number of minutes.

Cell phones are also becoming more exciting every year as they develop more built-in features not available in a landline. Most cell phones today are also media players capable of playing videos, music, and displaying photos. High-resolution cameras come in standard to most high-end phones. Some cell phones are also giving PDAs a run for their money with their powerful organizing features. Furthermore, battery life gets longer and more efficient as well.

For those looking for reasons to leave their landlines, here are surefire bundles to check out:

The slim-designed phone has twin screens. The high-resolution main screen is hidden inside the flip phone while important details of a call or of the state of the phone are displayed in an external albeit smaller screen when the lid is closed. It also has a 1-megapixel camera and a capable music player with a similar option as the N75 to upgrade the memory.
