Hmm, in Poland there are still pretty many landlines but I suppose that they are counted "by numbering range", not by "used technology" and the number may be oveestimated by several percent. Hundreds of thousands fixed lines are connected via GSM or CDMA, not via cable. Also VoIP numbers are landline by numbering (either one of 49 geographical area codes or the non-geografical 39 prefix). Personally, I know two households that claim not to have landlines but in fact they have VoIP landline numbers . Also many people have active landline numbers only because they are mandatorily "bundled" with DSL internet access from Polish Telecom
