Jitterbug is Senior Cell Phones you don’t even have to dial numbers!

For a lot of the elders, it’s becoming harder even to lift their hands to the phone, causing arthritis and more.

For those senior citizens, there’s a Jitterbug solution that lets you call via an operator. (How cool is that?)

We think this would actually work for blind people too.

Think of as backtracking our phone technology to the first days when operators switched lines manually.

What a great concept back from the history of phones.

With its big easy-to-read 12 numbers, (or the even simpler 3-button model), it comes pre-programmed and ready to use right out of the box. Push “YES” to call from your personal phone list and you’ll hear a familiar dial tone, which a separate Volume Up/Down button on the cover. An operator is always standing by to help, and 911 emergency calls are always free.

Granny likes the easy of use, the soft ear cushion, and the friendly operators. And something I didn’t notice – she likes that the instructions are written in big letters. Smart. Service plans start as low as $10 a month, and there’s no contract required $147 for a handset. GreatCall has made deals with CDMA carriers across the country and numerous regional service providers, so no matter where you live, they can provide great coverage for Jitterbug customers nationwide.

Wow, it looks like someone had to hook up all their old cellphones to an electric piano. Each key on the piano responds to a dial button on one of those phones, creating a dial-tone. Of course, there’s not enough dial-tones to cover all the notes.

The cell phone piano. Each key on the keyboard is wired into a key on a cell phone – as you play, you are also dialing. The channels are mixed together and amplified through speakers. Every sound the piano makes is generated by one of the four phones. The white keys play notes and the black keys are people saying the number out loud – English on the left hand and Spanish on the right. Some white keys were left over and I made those percussion instruments (the “*”, “END”, and “#” keys).

Budweiser Telephone!

If you can’t drink it, it’s not beer but if you can talk to it, it could be a Budweiser telephone. (or just a beer bottle and you got too drunk)

Too bad, the beer bottle isn’t real glass, making it too easy to tell it’s not a real beer bottle.

Very Vivid Budweiser beer shape phone.
Beer Telephone is prefect as a decoration in your bedroom / living-room / bar-table / computer desk / pub / snack store
Last Number Redial.
The functions of “*” and “#” button are not the same as usual telephones. The”*” button is for Redial, and the “#” button is for Pause. There are no usual “*” and “#” button in the Phone.
Enter your desired numbers, suppose the line is busy, just press the reset button and press”*” then the last number will be redialed automatically
When rings, pick up your phone, you will be incontact with your caller
Just stand the phone upright on any flat surface to hang up, lift to get dial tone.
Both Headphones and mike are attached on the body of the Budweiser bottle.
