I'm Sure At Least One of You Knows The Answer

A little help, please. My girl is trying to remember the name of a style of phone that was made in the 80's: a baseless phone that hangs up just by putting it down on the counter/table/book/coke mirror/whatever flat surface you had. A piece of rectangular plastic with a cord coming out of one end and buttons on the belly side.

Anyone remember those?

I remember them, but I don't remember them having a special name.

Don't rember what they were called. I do remember that it was annoyingly easy to accidently hang up on someone.
