Think about it. In this case a scheduled power outage, but some areunplanned.The smoke alarms start beeping, there are three small children in the house,and not a single line-powered phone to dial 9-1-1.Hot pipe with no thermostatic fan switch was outgassing. Kids were fine,treated mom for hyperventilation.Have to wonder how many of us are so gadgeted that we don't have aline-powered phone, though. Good thing she finally found her cell phone inthe dark.

A better solution is to dial 911 while filling your hand with 1911.

Another SunRocket user here. I am extremely happy with the service. Considerably less cost than my old copper line that I only used for my TiVo, and now the whole family uses it for almost all their calls (we all have cell phones as well, but the wife and daughters all eat up their minutes).

For us to be without a cell phone in this house is not very likely. 4 cell phones with working plans, and 5 old cell phones we keep around for those times when someone's battery dies in the middle of a call, so we have 9 cell phones that we can dial 911 from.
