Phone service in Iowa might be overshadowed by cellular providers, but it still serves a practical function in many households and businesses. Land line telephones connect directly, never needing a signal or to be within range of a network. Many businesses rely on land lines to incorporate call forwarding and voicemail systems, creating better connections between them and their customers. Families may find the land line phone useful because it connects everyone under the same line, and businesses and vendors who may call through the day will not interrupt anyone on their personal cell phone. Plus, phone services can be cheaper than monthly cellular plans, and customers can still choose from many options like Caller ID, call waiting, call forwarding, and unlimited long distance in the country and the world.
Many phone service providers are cable companies like Qwest, who can offer television and Internet in addition to phone, creating a more convenient method of shopping for those looking for entertainment and communication services.

No, they are not. If your power or cable goes out, likely the phone goes out too. Traditional phones also carry thier own power and are generally very dependable.
