Last week we took a BSNL connection. Though its purpose was solely for net I feel nice whenever phone rings....a nostalgic feeling. It may be because I am hearing its ring after 6 years. What about you? Whole world is now disconnecting land phone connection and completely depending on mobile phones. I now remember Preethi Zinta's ad of MTNL where she rejects a boy saying a home without landphone is a place without identity :cheer:

Even we have disconnected it but now we have new connection just for internet purpose. I think for offices and all that landline phones are necessary.

That article is great.. But why not image appearing!!

I am using mobile, but not using calling feature more, as I rarely call to anybody. But I do use it for other purposes like internet. Do you think it can affect us healthwise? :huh:
We still have land line connection, we have'nt disconnected it, though every one has mobile phones.
I had 4 landline connections until 2009, one my personal and 3 official from different telecom companies for official use but I have none as of now although I have 4 mobile phones instead.

Preeti Zintas views on landlines are not hers. She parroted the words written by the Ad Copywriter. For me Landlines are still good

As a marketing manager of a telecom company I was supposed to be in touch of marketing staff, service people and distributors/dealers net work allover the country and a few other countries. That was tough but lots of fun too because I could handle problems instantly.

But still I guess two phones are enough for this purpose.. 4 can create trouble, I mean where to keep all of them.

will those images be restored.
last league, i went to every neighbour's home to take photos of their interior. picture insertion is also a time consuming process. this time, i didn't spend my time for inserting pictures. full waste
I still have a landline connection. Even though we have mobiles, we still prefer to have this connection because my internet is connected to it and also because I do not prefer to use my mobile so frequently. Also, sometimes there may be a problem with signal etc. so its better to have a landline connection always.
I have a fixed phone of BSNL (then Deptt. of telecom) since 1991. For some time, i had also internet service of BSNL but now i have Tikona network service. The BSNL fixed phone also serves as residential proof and hence I agree with Preethi Zinta's ad of MTNL. My parents found Land Line more convenient. Many contact on he fixed phone and so this needs not be surrendered. .
Land phone has some limitation and needs more maintenance so Now it is absolute and Mobile has more facilities.

Yes.. That's why people are moving to mobile.

But in offices, Mobile phone can't take place of land lines. :whistle:

I agree about proof of residence but in my case I stay here for only for a few months every year so it does not serve my purpose.

we may consider that mobile phone is personal whereas the fixed phone is for family or an establishment. In other words, fixed phone is for collective use unlike mobile phone which is personal. Keeping this in view, one may decide.
No I still have a landline connection of MTNL mostly because of internet. :)
