Better check out the 911 before you need it, tell them its a test. Jim does this for a living (runs the 911 center in chicago) and half the time it does not work....I would test it out before you need it. If you would ask him he would tell you, half the time it will work and half the time it will not....Plus if the tower is down it will not work...I love my cell phone but would not use it for my home phone....

When we were in mexico I could use my cell phone to call the states no problem. We did have to get an international plan tho. without it, it would have been 2.50 per minute, with the plan it was .54 cents per minute.

The only reason I don't like cell phones for land lines, if the towers are down, or something happens you do not have a phone...
