Are House Phones Needed Anymore

Posted by writer on October 25th, 2009 at 07:33pm

Not so long ago the first landline phones were released, these phones used finger dialling and they took the world by storm, people were able to communicate with people in other countries. But as everything these phones started to develop calls got a lot clearer and we could call overseas destinations for a lot less.

But then game the production of mobile cell phones, these caught on like wild fire and now in this current day and age we are seeing kids as young as ten years old using mobile phones. The technology in mobile handsets are just developing so fast, they now allow us to connect to the internet as well as capture images and videos. The calls are also getting a vast amount cheaper and you will be able to get signal from almost anywhere.

So do we really need landlines anymore? This question has two answers, which are both yes and no, so lets have a look at the reasons why

1) Firstly businesses will always need land line telephones, they will need these to transfer calls, track calls and do a lot more. Although mobile phones are great I do not think they can be used for business reason.

2) On the other hand are landlines really useful in the home anymore? I mean mobile based calls are just getting a lot cheaper so why get a landline? The thing about landlines is that they only work in specific locations you cant be too far away from the hand unit otherwise the signal will drop, besides that they constantly need charging otherwise their batteries will cut out.

In the end only time will tell what is going to happen. Lets wait and see what happens in the next decade.
