Hmmm, noticed that we can post POLLS, so I thought I would try it out.

Question is...

Relative to where YOU live, WHERE is your FPL number based?

IE: within the same metro calling area, or in a "distant" area.

Subquestions are included for classification and clarification.

Thanks for participating!

Just to get me on the record too, my MAIN day-to-day number is my cell number. Before FPL, I had not had a "home" phone line in well over 12 years (although for some of those, I did live with someone where I had access to a traditional land-line).

My current set up is: cell phone & locally-based FPL VOIP softphone.
