Should I give up landline for mobile only, individual broadband?

Hi, any suggestions regarding ditching the landline and sticking to a mobile deal exclusively? - I only know this will be no good for international calls, unless there is a phone card with one of those pre-dial numbers on it which give you cheap calls on mobiles - any suggestions? ...
And which cheapest Broadband only deal would anyone recommend for a North Londoner?
This way I assume my costs would plummet further.. .I presently have Talk Talk broadband+phone (not the basic, the next one up) package and gave up expensive Virgin Cable tv (costing me hundreds more than present deal). Want to chop down to
minimum......:A........ ina saintly sorta way...........

I have a mobile phone, and Virgin cable broadband - the 10Mb service costs £15 vp/m for the first 3 months, then £20 p/m (Quidco offers £65 cashback too). I use a VOIP service which gives me a "virtual" landline, including a local phone number.0

You can't have ADSL broadband without a landline for which you have to pay line rental, whether you use the phone or not.
Go to samknows.com and do an exchange search for your LLU options for broadband, since broadbad is exchange specific it's not possible to give recommendation for 'North London', it depends on your exchange.
Might be cheaper to drop your ADSL landline and add broadband from VM unless you are getting rid of the TV service?No free lunch, and no free laptop
