Re: What About Rotary Phones??

Pulse dialing should be no problem. The device in your house that the phones plug into just has to support it. Whether it will or not is dependent on demand - there is no technology limitation.

Perhaps you will sign up with the VoIP provider that has devices that support pulse. The question is are you willing to pay a premium price for that?

Re: What About Rotary Phones??

I have quite a few phones that date back to the WWII era, and yes I would not mind paying any additional cost(within reason) to keep them working for another 60 years.

Maybe it's a Bell System thing, but no one makes telephones like Western Electric did.

thats because they where rentals from the bell system. Ma Bell wanted something that they wouldnt have to replace or service but still charge a lease on and make lots of profit. the result was phones made from used tank armor....
