All persons need it, if and when broadband goes down.
I use it to do basic email then.

Also company with large broadband capability computers linked only to
their closed network, as they will not permit FTP (due security system
adopted) and cannot access web except through their VPN from computers
in house. By a normal land line independent telephone or mobile I can
obtain the FTP files (bid document files) available from his customers!
Then to USB Hard disc and transfer into his system
