Call me an old fart but I actually miss substantial phones with an analog bell ringing. All the electronics and plastics seem so throwaway. Adds to the sense of surreality. With the volume of calls I have coming in now, I’d hate to have to use a rotary dial for all of them, but there’s still something oddly satisfying about using one.
I bought one from here: http://www.oldphones.com/ . I haven’t put it in yet since I only have one “line”/outlet, but it’s a beauty to look and it has that nice heavy feel. I have an old black desk phone.
