When I get nostalgic I think of the days when I had to remember my friend’s phone number, or look it up in a phone book to call. Those were the days when landlines and payphones were everywhere.
After mobile phones were invented, there was a massive shift – now nearly half of Americans own only a cell phone without a landline. As you’d expect 71% of millenials have cellphone only households, while even nearly a quarter of senior citizens also have adjusted to living a cell phone only lifestyle.
