Default End Of Land Lines in College Dorms is Fast Approaching

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/6955990/

"Freshman Max Bender uses the phone plugged into the wall of his American University dorm room so rarely that he forgot it was there. "Hey," he said the other day when he walked in and saw it on top of the microwave. "We do have a land line." Starting next fall, AU students conditioned to cell phones will find few of those wired artifacts as the school all but eliminates traditional phone service in its residence halls."

This news might not matter to many of us, however it does show how much the cellphone has changed things. When I went to university we had party lines, and it was shared between 6 or so people, and no one had a cellphone.
