you could actually dial back then without the dial....just push the or holder up and down

You should still be able to dial that way.

I LOVE THE SOUND OF A DIALED PHONE.

You’re probably right. All it should take is a 60/40 contract break if they still allow regular dialing without tones. I haven’t tried it in years, though.
