That's funny. I use the sonar ping for my blackberry whenever an email comes in (only when out of the holster). Cool sound. I served on subs for 10 years. That's why I am nuts.

Mnahh... submariners are just interesting -- to compensate for not having a view of sunsets at sea like the Targets get.

I've actually only owned a cell phone for about three weeks now. I picked up a T-Mobile prepaid when it came to my attention that it fit my needs.

At the moment, discarding the horrible built-in ringtones, I have my choice of:
* clip from "Green Onions," Booker T and the MG's
* clip from one of my wife's favorite TV shows' theme as her custom ringtone
* George of the Otto & George ventriloquist act screaming "Let's all take a shit right here."

*

The phone on my desk is a Western Electric model from the early '1970's it's ivory colored, and works no matter what you can run thing over with a truck and it will still work. The ring is a mechanical bell.
the cordless ring tone is we wish you a merry christmas.
my cell ring tone is island tune, and tom's is some ringie noise.
Keryx's ring tone is Fur Elise.

I have an extra Western Electric. Bidding starts now with a $500.00 reserve.

Main ring tone is the ATT retro bell. Calls from home have the chorus from CSNY Our House. Text messages get a morse code bit. And meetings have a factory sound.

BTW, if your phone has a usb cable available, you can make your own ringtones for free. I've put instructions online for Windows Mobile phones if anyone is interested.

Mine is pretty simple. Wagner's Der Fliegende Hollander (the Flying Dutchman) for all calls except the wife, who gets a guy saying "Answer the phone or I'm kickin' yer ass!"
