I was given one of these in a hotel once but it had a major flaw in
that the CLEAR EVERYTHING button was placed just where you usually grab
it whenever you picked it up.    Consequently I managed to wipe the
whole thing clear about once each evening and had to wander with great
embarrassment down to the Reception Desk and ask them to reprogramme it
on every occasion..... sigh.

rush into the house claiming I've just made a 999 call (411 equivalent
in the States).  Wasn't me - but they took a bit of convincing!
