Persian (Farsi) term or phrase: تلفن بيسيم
Greetings,

It's a bit scary really – I keep coming across new technology I don't have an inkling about!

Here's the latest example - "تلفن بيسيم". What is it called in English, please? Hopefully it's the same in US English and UK English.

According to an Iranian friend, this shows various kinds of "تلفن بيسيم":

To me it looks plain weird – a land telephone with a mobile phone in the place where the receiver should be. I feel like a real country cousin!

All the best, and many thanks,

Simon
