In 1963 the Bell System introduced the first "push-button" telephone. The old style "rotary" dial phone would hang around for a long time, but touch tone was the "latest and greatest."

When's the last time you tried calling a number with a rotary phone? It's agonizingly slow. Brrrrrp, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick. Brrrrrp, tick, tick, tick, tick,tick, tick, tick, tick. (Oh good, a one.) Brrrrrp, tick. (Oh no, not another eight) Brrrrrp, tick, tick, tick, tick,tick,tick,tick,tick. . . .
