Rotary dial for iPhone
I am one of the few people left in the country that owns and uses a rotary-dial telephone. Call me old-fashioned, but I just like the sound of that bell instead of an electronic noise when the phone rings.Now you can extend part of that experience (at least the labored dialing part) to your iPhone. Minnesota-based CodeMorphic has released RetroPhone, an application that simulates the rotary dial mechanism on the screen of your iPhone.
Their website doesn’t have a whole lot of information yet, but you can watch a video of the software in action at the St. Paul Pioneer Press’s Your Tech Weblog. Of course, RetroPhone doesn’t replicate the satisfying tactile response, but all the joy of spending two hours to dial an international phone number can be entirely yours.
