The state of Virginia is one of the oldest in the nation, but that doesn't mean it's behind the times when it comes to technology. No matter what you're looking for, you'll be able to find it, even a landline phone. You'll have a lot of providers to choose from, and you won't have to break the bank, either.
Three major phone carriers serve the Old Dominion state. Spectrotel has two plans, as well as Power Net Global.
Finally, there is Trinsic, which also features four service prices, notably spaced. The most costly is over $50/month. There are two plans in the middle approximately $10 and $20 less. The final plan under this program is less than half the price of the most expensive plan and comparably priced with Cleartel at just below $25 per month.
Obviously, service varies with each of these plans, but between companies, services are very similar. With the top-tier plans, you'll get everything but the kitchen sink, call forwarding, caller id, call waiting, and even long distance with some. As the plans reduce in price, services also are removed. The beauty, though, is that with most companies, you can customize your plan however you want.

There are several wireless internet providers,you can try Verizon,or Sprint.
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.
This is a great question and with each person the answer will change. My personal opinion is home phones are a waste of time since the only time you can answer it is when you are home. Cell phones you can use anywhere and if you have a good data plan you will not worry about minutes. The only plus I could see from a landline is using it as a number to give to people that you do not want to give your cell number out to. If this is not an issue to you then there really is no point in spending an extra $25 a month.
You will need a landline phone to work as a customer service representative at home. Most companies will require you to have this in order to apply with their company but some of them will reimburse you for the charges. You can find good deals with AT&T.
