The death of the landline?

| New Zealand News | Thursday July 12 2012 12:02

The death of the landline may be imminent.

Research carried out by Canstar Blue, which rates products for consumers, has found a third of Generation Y don't have landlines.

Instead they opt to use their mobile phones to make their calls.

Just over half of Kiwis and two thirds of Generation Y are choosing for the pay-as-you-go option.

Gen Y are also four times more likely to spend their employer's time to check social media updates on their mobile phones than older colleagues.
