As I recall, telemarketers and not supposed to be able to call cell phones. However, I am not sure about that. Anyone know anything about this?

I still have a land line.
I don't know anyone who uses just cell phones. 
Granted, most calls made (and recieved) by my family members are on cell phones, but my above observation still holds true. ^^

I do appreciate subtlety though, and if there's a "mark" that appears more often in my closet its a Gucci snaffle bit. Of course anyone with taste will be able to spot a Hermes scarf halfway down Fifth Avenue....

An option is missing in the poll: I do not have a mobile phone at all (kind of principle, why would I waint to be joinable all the time?)...only land line. But you have to know that I'm a big exception in Switzerland too...

As far as mobile phones are concerned, I know several people who refuse to get one because they don't want to be able to be contacted at any time. It's a simple objection to overcome though, just don't pick up your phone if you don't want to.
