Cell Phone ONLY usage on the rise....

The number of people without traditional landline phones is increasing, as a growing number of U.S. adults use only mobile phones, a market research firm said Friday.

In a survey conducted in the fourth quarter of last year, Harris Interactive found that about one in seven adults only uses a cell phone, up from roughly one in 10 in 2006. .....additionally, the percentage of adults with cell phones has increased significantly over the last year. Nearly nine in 10 adults have a mobile phone, up from 77% percent a year ago.

My Take:
Interesting technology trend to watch as it will have a profound impact on people's lives moving forward + create winners/losers in the technology space for investors.
