Show the home phone that it still matters by clicking through this cluster of behind-the-times landlines. Your home phone will reward you with three way calling and call waiting.
Remember when those two things were hot new innovations! You could have parties over the phone thanks to three way calling. I can't help but feel nostalgic when I think of all of these behind-the-times landlines. It seems like just yesterday I was hoarding the home phone (the cordless one) for all of my conversation needs.
