Is it a landline or a smart phone?

This is the smartest landline phone I've ever had. But of course my phone is smarter...I think. I still haven't gotten it to dispense cash, brush my hair, or pour me a soda. But hey, what can I say? LOL. Check out this manual for the phone I got. It's a great way to annoy my kids since I set up a phone in every room. HEHEHE. I can call one receiver and not disturb the whole house. I can use the landline to call from my cellphone. So much more.

I'm uploading pics of the manual because I have a habit of misplacing paperwork. So since there are codes to do this and do that on the phone that I can't remember I'm just uploading the whole dog-gone thing, minus the 8 or so pages that were in Spanish.
