MacDialer

Speed dial for your digital hub

Apple left one important function out of your digital hub: your telephone. MacDialer fixes this oversight by letting you use your Mac to dial using your built-in modem, your speakers, your Bluetooth-enabled cell phone, or internet telephone technologies. MacDialer adds the convenience of being able to dial numbers directly from your Address Book or from your menu bar.
