[comp.dcom.telecom] One-piece Telephones

"Robert M. Hamer" <HAMER524@ruby.vcu.edu> (06/07/90)

Is it my imagination, or have the one-piece telephones (both
inexpensive and expensive) basically disappeared from sale?  I am
looking to buy a new phone for our upstairs, and the best phone to buy
would be one that I could just put down on a narrow ledge in the
hallway in order for it to be available.  I have a cheap, old phone
(about nine years old, cost about 10 bucks) called something like a
"Mura QuickPhone" there now, and I want to replace it.

A more expensive phone would be acceptable, but it would be nice if it
did not need some sort of cradle or holder in which to put it.  The
ledge is narrow, and wide enough for the phone, but an additional
piece that did nothing but hold the phone would be a loose pain in the
neck that I don't need.
