Who is on your speed dialer?

I have only one -- a neighbor I might need to call in a hurry some day. But I've never needed to.

First phone I ever had, I programmed in some numbers, but I don't think I ever speed-dialed one once. I don't have unlimited LD, but everylne I know does, so they call me. I often wish they'd stop.

No one. I used to keep 5 or 6 numbers stored in there but now I don't use a speed dial.

Never owned a speed dialer.


I have a large phone book list in the cell phone... but it is not a speed dialer.

Wait.

By "speed dialer", I thought the OP meant dial one number on the cell phone and it calls the person. Is there a separate machine for this?

I buy the cheapest landline phone I can get, Vtech from WalMart, and it will store numbers with a code for each one, I can just enter it and hit dial. Distinct from a directory, which is just a list of every number you know. Maybe it's an old-fashioned thing that nobody even remembers.

With all the smart phones now, aren't speed dialers a thing of the past?
