So the solution for loss of a proper phone line is to plug in an adapter - presumably that's an ATA VOIP box. These of course are provided free by your ISP then? Oh and that assumes you've got broadband in the first place - and that you have the skills or even the kit to configure/reconfigure one of these things.
The world doesn't give a toss about about folk who are not into the latest gadgets and gizmos and staying connected 24/7 and all that crap - but there are a lot of people for whom this is going to be a very difficult transition.
Suggesting that Mobile Coverage Will Be Better is just deluded without change. The biggest single change which should be enforced on all mobile providers is that all masts must provide connections for all networks. After all you don't get a new line every time you switch electricity provider so why should you depend on a particular mobile provider having THEIR mast near you so you can use the damn thing.
