Here’s something for those that crave to go back in time, at least virtually. Thanks to the third-party native app called iDial, iPhone users can add an old-school rotary-type dialing to their beloved handsets. As you can see from the screenshots above, the application looks just the way you can imagine it, even displaying the number you just dialed at the center — so there’s no confusion.
Naturally, you’ll need a jailbroken iPhone. Add new source (http://rep.sosiphone.com) to Installer.app and take it from there.
UPDATE: A demo of iDial in action follows after the jump.

Dusan has been using smartphones since their introduction and is now following the latest trends in the industry. The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do. In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application. Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
