I'm hoping that there is a "progammable caller ID" phone or phone
attachment that I can buy for a landline phone.
By way of example, on cell phones, I can go in and program
"212-555-1212" to read "Suzie's work phone" or "Jim & Suzie" or "Suzie
- office" or whatever I want to use to represent that number.
Also, I can scroll alphabetically until I come to the words I've
used to designate the number and hit the right button to call that
person.
I'm wondering if there is such a phone or phone attachment to do the
same thing on home phones? The Caller ID landline phones that I know
about will only show the phone company's designation of what the phone
number represents, generally something like "Smith, Suzie", which is
not necessarily as intuitive. The standard ones that I know about
also don't have any sort of call-out feature.
So, can you help me find a landline phone or phone attachment with
either or both of the features I've described? I'm thinking that this
would be a nifty thing for my 84 year old grandpa. Many, many thanks.
P.S. I'm in California, USA. |
