1 in 4 Americans have no landline.

According to a story in the NYT, the CDC - I know, why the Centers for Disease Control - reports that 25% of Americans are now completely wireless, with people under 35 leading the way.

Makes sense, especially in our society that places a premium on connectivity. That land line is too restrictive, and just ends up sitting in its cradle. It took me a full year after getting a wireless plan with 1500 anytime minutes, to finally cut the cord, but I've been cord free for the past 3.5 years now. Most of my friends have only wireless, too. Well, except the older ones.
