My grandmother has alzheimer’s, she probably can’t remember me by now (which is very sad indeed) but for those of you lucky enough to have grandparents that have not reached that stage yet they have hard time using their hands or simply remembering numbers, you might want to consider making them one of these cool DIY auto-dial telephone’s for their birthday or any other special occasion.
Of course, don’t forget, you can also buy one of these auto-dialer telephones here if you don’t want to make one yourself.
On a side note, you can also probably turn any cellphone into an easy, auto-dialer phone by hacking the GUI for phones like the new Palm Pre or perhaps even an iPhone.
