Found this golden oldie in an antique shop. Classic format, old technology, and a 24 year old movie reference! (startrek.website)

Doesn't have to be a pay phone. It just has to be corded

What if I plug a charger into my phone? Or does it need to be connected to a RJ11 phone line?

I'm pretty sure it has to be a corded landline by canon

I thought they just made printers.

This is especially bad because there are now many countries that ended up never really building out a POTS landline network.

At some point the United States is going to decide to just stop maintaining theirs.
