Ahhh, the liberty of not having a home phone....we go mobile all the way plus I am a notorious call-screener (if you block caller ID expect to have to leave a message and have me call you back).

The last time I had a land-line I had a silent number, so hardly ever got calls as I was very picky about who I gave the number to. Btw, having at one time worked for Telstra I can tell you there is a difference between "unlisted" and "silent" numbers. Unlisted is usually free and just means you're not in the phone book, where-as a silent number is a paid service where you aren't in the phone book *and* get automatic line blocking for caller ID - charities and such can ONLY get a silent number if you give it to them and if you are paying for a silent number and you do get calls you are well within your rights to complain.
