The telephone (from the Greek: τῆλε, tēle, "far" and φωνή, phōnē, "voice") is a telecommunications device that transmits and receives sound, most commonly the human voice. It is one of the most common household appliances in the developed world, and has long been considered indispensable to business, industry and government. The word "telephone" has been adapted to many languages and is widely recognized around the world.

The device operates principally by converting sound waves into electrical signals, and electrical signals into sound waves. Such signals when conveyed through telephone networks — and often converted to electronic and/or optical signals — enable nearly every telephone user to communicate with nearly every other worldwide. Graphic symbols used to designate telephone service or phone-related information in print, signage, and other media include ℡(U+2121), ☎(U+260E), ☏(U+260F), and ✆(U+2706).

What style cell phone is good for an older person?
Q. I got my mom a cell phone about 2 years ago to bring her up to the technology world and finally have a cell phone. I didnt realize when I got her the phone that the numbers are really hard to see and the key pad is really small for her. I have her set up with Alltel and I know she is due for a new phone soon. Can anyone tell me what kind of phone has bigger numbers and a bigger screen to see who is calling?

A. Hi, I looked on the Alltel's website and there isn't that many phones that have big keypad. And the touchscreen phones most are too high tech for older person. from all their phones I think Motorola Krave ZN4 is the better choice. because it's not too high tech, and it has a good size touchscreen keypad, with this type of keypad is a lot easier to see the numbers, because they are big and bright. and they have a clear screen cover build-in. hopefully that help's a bit. P.S. F.Y.I. Alltel is now a part of Verizon Wireless

What mobile phone should I get for my dad based upon the following details?
Q. Needs fairly large keys (big fingers!) Decent sized screen Good battery life Reasonably strong screen and not too delicate a phone in general. Good loud earpiece and loud ringtones. All other things are a luxury. He doesn't want one of these "ultra-rugged" phones though or one of these "old people" phones. Just a standard high street mobile phone. Cheers!

A. this looks good, not sure about screen size though but would be good choice i think The mobile phone company claims its stripped-down, no-nonsense Jet handset lasts two-thirds longer than any comparable on sale device. The simplified handset is aimed more at business users, but with more than 540 hours on standby and 9.9 hours of talk-time we know a few consumers who like to get their hands on one. O2 boasts that Jet has more than double the talktime of the Nokia 6230i, the most popular device on its network. The robust handset includes a special protective case and comes with a two year warranty. The device offers quad-band connection, GPRS and supports Pop3 and IMAP4 email. The O2 Jet is released on 19th October and its… [cont.]

What is the name of phone accesory that holds the phone on your shoulder?
Q. SO, back in the day, there used to be these handy dandy little things you could attach to a phone (like an actual telephone not a cell phone) so that you could rest the phone on your shoulder. Usually made of plastic, nude color, very handy. Whats the name of that?
Asked by Krysta d - Wed Jul 30 20:05:42 2008 - - 4 Answers - 0 Comments

A. It's called telephone shoulder rest, not a cradle - the cradle is the actual base of the phone where the handset rest when the phone is off-hook.
