Death Of A Telephone

I've noticed that traditional methods of communication have become somewhat expensive in today's world. We're starting to see less expensive alternatives to communication these days. I've noted that my telephone bill has gotten to be progressively larger. The ironic thing is that I hardly ever use my land-line phone these days. With great low-cost alternatives like Skype, VoIP services, e-mail, cell phones, and other methods of communication, it's not surprising that my usage of the land-line phone service seems to be fading. As with everyone else these days, I'm always on the move, and I need my communication methods to be as mobile as I am. So, the home phone finally begins to fade into the background. I'm in the process of divesting one of my land-line phones in favor of all of the other methods of communication. I wonder which technology will be next to fade into history. See ya.
