This is good to know! I have had a friend or two use Vonage, Ooma, or maybe Magic Jack devices, and I think I had read that rotary phones will not dial using those devices. Maybe the key is to have an actual company-provided VoIP service rather than the retail-store-bought boxes I mentioned.

For now, I still have real analog phone service combined with my high-speed Internet, and I like being able to make rotary-dial calls. Even to cell phones.
