Lots and lots of opinions of whether a land-line phone is required. We have one only because we lived in Ohio when Hurricane Ike came through there in 2008 and destroyed power and cell coverage got bad for most everyone. We were one of the few in our neighborhood with a working (land-line) phone. But, your choice. As far as which carrier for your cell, that's a tough one. We have AT&T which has its good and bad moments. I've heard both good and bad about all the major systems. Maybe wait till you get down here and use your cell phone a few times at the places you plan to spend most of your valuable recreation time. You for certain shouldn't make any concrete changes until you get here and check things out.
