Today everybody has one...if you don't people actually look at your funny! I remember the days when we had to use land lines too...you had to go from place to place to find a payphone that worked and then you had to get handfuls of change.
I have a cel, my hubby has one, even my 14 and 10 yr old have them. I think we are a much busier society now then 15-20 years ago ...that is why they have almost become a necessity.

It would be like asking someone in the 60s if they could live without their regular phone.
Technology moves forward. I now don't even have a land line at home. If someone wants to call me, they call me. If someone wants to call my wife, they call her. We are often out and about, at work etc. What is the point of having a land line at the house?
So don't bemoan the good old days passing, they sucked anyway. The future is bright!

It's weird because if someone had told me twenty years ago that people would be walking around with these tiny wireless phones I wouldn't have believed it. Now if I forget it I feel like I'm handicapped in some way. I find myself watching old movies and the character will be in some emergency situation and I think "Use your cell phone!" Duh!
I guess if I had to live without one I could, but it would be a miserable existence! LOL

As a matter of sanity preservation - I could live without a cellphone easily.
Work requires me to be on call unfortunately - and my family likes to be able to get a hold of me whenever they want....
..but if I had the choice, I'd chuck it in the Potomac

I could live without a cellphone. In fact, I think I would prefer living without one. They become a nuisance. My parents bought me one for "emergencies", but they call me every couple of hours. Grrr!!!

I suppose i could live without one but its a bit hard not to have one nowadays.How else are you meant to phone people if your nowhere near a land line phone?

I use my cell phone all the time because of cingular to cingular and everyone i know has cingular so it makes it cheaper!
I probably could live with out it for a day. but i would eventually go crazy!

If the people before the invention of cellphones can, I think I can, too.

A cell phone should only be used in an emergency.
