For those of you intrigued by the recent discussion on different methods
of numbering rotary dials, Fair Radio Sales has a telephone for sale
that has an Oslo/New Zealand dial - 9 sends 1 pulse, 8 sends 2, down to
0 which sends 10 pulses.  They call it their "oslo telephone," stock
number OSLO-BK, price $14.95 plus shipping.  It seems to work on US
lines, though it is of course not FCC registered, and you have to do a
little translating when dialing.  Fair Radio is at 1016 E.  Eureka
Street, PO Box 1105, Lima, Ohio 45802, 419-223-2196 or 223-2793.
