Mobile Phones Not As Addictive As Advertised

At least not according to a recent Harris poll. Eighty-one percent of U.S. adults still have a landline in their homes (and that landline in most cases isn't VoIP). What happened to the mobile and IP telephony revolution?While 77% of those polled have a cell phone, just 11% of those surveyed only use it as the primary form of communication. I remember five years ago when polls kept indicating that more people would cut the cord. While 11% isn't bad, it's far from the revolution many were predicting at the time.

On the VoIP front, 16% of those surveyed use it, but it's not obvious how much of that is as landline replacement or just peer-to-peer communications like Skype.

And a little child shall lead them. Or at least a young adult -- of the 11% who are mobile-only, 55% are between ages 18 and 29.

Personally, I use VoIP as a landline replacement and I own two cell phones -- one is a Razr (stop laughing) the other is a Treo. How about you? How many of you have cut the cord? And how many use VoIP instead of a POTS line?
