I do not have an iPhone, but if I did this is the first app I would buy for it.

i couldn't afford an iphone so i bought a real phone and glued the dial on to the touchscreen of my cellphone. the results are sometimes unpredictable but you can't beat it for style.

You know I don't believe I've ever used a rotary phone in my entire life. I just remember seeing one in my grandparents house. Though I'm pretty sure they just kept it for the decor.

Sigh.

And I remember when "touch tone" was the new-fangled thing and it cost more to have.

Thanks for the tip. I just bought it. I'll try it out tomorrow. For 99 cents, I just couldn't pass it up.

That's so sweet. Now my kids will have a way of knowing what a rotary phone was like.

I showed it to everyone here at work, and everyone with an iPhone bought it right away, incredibly silly, but fun

I suspect the touch dial will be just as foreign to those born in a couple decades as as the rotary is to me now.

I especially love the sound. My grand ma had one of those hanging on the kitchen wall. Ah, the nostalgia!

You need that handset to match that iphone app!

That app is almost worth buying an iphone

Some of the dial wheels required a lot of force to turn (dial) and some women (like my Mother) had dial sticks that fit on the end of pens/pencils and matched the dial holes. This kept her fingers out of the holes and kept her long nails from breaking when she made a call.
