My wife & I were wireless-only until we had our first child. It turns out 911 is handled very differently (at least in California). If I were to call 911 from my landline I'm connected to our local dispatch & my address is automatically sent. If I were to call from our cell phones, only the cell tower is sent (and maybe that), and the call is routed through a statewide system. I hope to never have to actually call, but figured it's worth the small fee if seconds matter. That said, it still seems backwards. My cell phone has GPS coordinates. I would hope that someone in the not-too-distant-future we can make calling 911 as good (if not better) on a cell phone.
