You can buy old refurbished ones; the people who restore old phones can put pulse to tone converters in, rig them to work with VOIP services, etc.

I have the Verizon fiber optic service which allows me to connect just about any old phone and have it work. I use it to test old dial phones.

In my area, they deactivated all of the land-line outlets when Fios came in. How would I use my old phone here without converting it somehow? Will it connect just like the Ooma VOIP does?

(Not smart about these things but love my old rotary phone.)
