Hi Ricardo, If Anthony only has an iPhone and uses it as his main home number, turning on Do Not Disturb may not be something he wishes to do if he is waiting for an important call. I got rid of my home landline as well about 3 or 4 years ago and I already decided as well to buy either an iPod Touch or an iPad Mini at some point so that I don't always have to use my iPhone for everything. I listen to Audible a lot and while that doesn't take up a lot of battery, it still does use power and if I had another device for at home I probably wouldn't have to charge my iPhone all the time.
