A Lawyer and Doctor wouldn't have a $3.50 Feature on their phone??-lol Mr. Television 07-03-2007, 01:02 AM I don't know what year it started but I didn't have it then. TVFactFan 07-03-2007, 01:07 AM I don't know what year it started but I didn't have it then. I was even using the phone in 1987-lol Ireneparalegal 07-08-2007, 04:41 PM It depends what area of the country you lived in and what phone service you had. The entire country didn't have the call waiting and other features yet. I guess for this episode they made it "convenient" to not have the call waiting feature. In 1987 I didn't have any features on my phone. Cordless phones weren't even the "thing" yet. |
