Europeans picking mobiles over landlines

Europeans are increasingly shunning landlines for mobile phones and online calling, according to a European Union survey released Friday. The poll, carried out in November and December, found that 24 percent of European households have given up fixed landlines for mobile phones, up from 22 percent in a survey two years earlier. The Czech Republic, Finland and Lithuania had the lowest number of landlines in use across the 27-nation bloc.
