Yeah, just because they didn't sell any more of them doesn't mean everyone upgraded right away.

We got a button phone early 90s.

The old one was hanging about until 2000s before it got thrown out.

My grandparents had a rotary phone up until the 2010s. I remember calling my great grandma while she was still alive on it.

I work for a service provider, and would fucking love being able to place calls in my softphone with a rotary dial

I was born in '86, and remember my grandparents upgrading from dial to cordless around 1997.

Those rotary phones lasted forever, and grandad wasn't about to replace that "perfectly good" phone with a 40 foot cord on it.
