The Teli Compact is a fine example of 20th century pulse
phone technology. Teli was a subsidiary company of
the Swedish telecommunications public utility
(Televerket) responsible for telephone design
and manufacturing prior to deregulation and liberalisation of
the Swedish telecommunications industry. It ceased
phone manufacture in 1988. The Teli Compact is Swedish
style condensed into a compact, desktop, button phone.
Unlike touch tone, pulse phones make lovely audible clicks.
But careful using it for tele-banking, because automated
touch-tone systems can't hear pulse phone clicks.
