[Electronics-Talk] Talking Call Waiting Device

[Raymond Foret Jr]

No sir, sorry to dissolution you but the plain fact is Amazon DOES, NOT, make talking caller ID units.  The firm that used to make them was called Clasco.  They haven’t made those in years.  IF you got it from amazon, it was from old stock they still haven’t cleared out yet.
