Survey: More phone customers go wireless

As the cost of using mobile phones drops, more consumers are choosing to cut the cord, according to Forrester Research. At the end of 2005, approximately 8% of U.S. households that subscribe to mobile phone service had dropped their land-line phones, compared with 5% at the end of 2004, Forrester says. In addition, the average age of cord-cutters has risen slightly, with more users in the 35-44 bracket choosing to go wireless.
