For me the iffy 911, and power outage situation are show stoppers.
Having worked in the Aircraft Industry for 20 years I’ve grown to appreciate system redundancy, and I am willing to pay a modest price in order to have separate voice and data capability (losing one does not mean losing the other.)
I also do not believe that Cell Phones should be considered a reliable back-up in emergency situations since the system tents to be easily overwhelmed during wide area emergencies (hurricanes, earthquakes, etc.) When hurricane Katrina hit I had a difficult time placing a cell phone call to anywhere within 800 miles of the region. I live in California and I was trying to call family back in Texas.
