like, land lines will always have a place. it may play a diminished role but there are advantages to landlines that won’t ever be filled by cell phones. no issue with signals for one. how many times has your cell dropped your call? duh.
people who think storing their precious data at an online source are likely the same people who ask how in the world they got a virus on their computer. it’s called SECURITY people. storing your data on someone else’s server is UNSAFE.
compact digital cameras isn’t going anywhere either. cuz not everyone (actually most everyone) don’t feel like lugging around a giant dslr. duh.
