   Right, that's what this appears to be. Modern phones will do the same thing but this has a large VF display. Modern phones have a tiny LCD display. I picked this up for a friend of mine. He's nearly blind and has a very hard time reading LCD displays. For example, he still prefers a HP-45 to the HP-41.

   I still have a Demon Dialer. It's great for getting through to those ALWAYS BUSY numbers (like tech support!) The modern phones won't redial continously like the Demon Dialer will.
