Hi, Charles...

Two comments:

(1) They've gotten much easier to use.

(2) Big problem with payphones is vandalism and attempted theft. A few years
ago we installed a genuine ATT payphone in your neighborhood (inside a nice
doctors' building on Tarrytown Rd.). No one ever broke into it, but each
year several people cut the armored handset cable or tried to get the phone
off the wall.

Unless you are prepared to do lots of maintenance and get late-night calls
from people who claim to have lost quarters, I recommend that you let
someone in the payphone business handle it. Sometimes you make more profit
by turning down business.
