Anyone here still have their Princess phone from long ago?

I have one I saved. It's a gawdawful brown cuz hubby didn't want a Princess phone in a sissy color. Technology in home landline phones evolved and even tho we have cell phones we still have our Panasonic home phones.

Are we old or what?

1. We have a touch tone princess connected to a landline

And high speed broadband.



oh, and I have a cell, but my wife doesn't.

Might be characteristic of a certain age range who's lives spanned a few technology leaps.

Dial up internet didn't exist for the masses until I was in my 20's.

3. Is it corded?

I can't imagine not being able to walk around with a cordless phone...

5. You bet

20 foot cord, gets tangled up all the time, lol.

I walk around with a bluetooth headset for my cell. My wife talks on the landline.

2. I have an old rotary dial phone.

Picked it up st a garage sale for a dollar. Has yet to drop a call.

4. I have one of those gawdawful brown ones too--out in the garage in a box, but i know I have it.

I will say they were a lot more durable than all the wireless ones I had (when I still had a landline probably a decade ago)...

6. There's a beige one hanging by the kitchen...

... but, since we discontinued our land-line service, it's not useable. I'm not sure why we left it there.

7. Rotary dial or push button?

We'll see how old you really are.

8. I have one, everyone should. It works if the electricity goes out, unlike a cordless.

Old phones got their power from the phone line, not the wall socket.

9. If you come across a push button desk

phone with only 10 buttons, no Astric or pound sign, grab it. If not a black color, really grab it. First 6 months they made them, they only had 10 buttons and are rare.
