All this is tongue-in-cheek, of course--I'm not really trying to complain about a free phone! It's just not what I'd have picked. Of course, if I were footing the bill myself, I probably wouldn't have a smartphone either. Though it certainly does come in handy, I have to say.
Do you need two landlines for business or something? I am lucky to work for a cable provider, so our cable, Internet and phone all cost next to nothing. I couldn't happily live without broadband Internet, but if we had to pay for the cable TV we wouldn't have it, and if I had to pay for any phones I'd ditch the landline and get a decent cell phone instead.
