Modern telephones also offer so many sophisticated features like call waiting, call divert, caller ID etc. All of these are handy in one way or the other. Call waiting will enable you to receive the second call while keeping the first call on hold. Call divert allows you to let someone else receive calls made to you, even though you are not within reach or do not want to be disturbed.
