Original Tones
The work of artists, Thomson & Craighead's dot-store company has a very original set of items for sale (such as "Other People's e-cards", "Under Construction" tatoos and my personal favorite, a "Google Tea Towel" sporting a series of authentic search engine results returned to a user when the criteria, 'Please Help Me' were entered into the search field) and, some very unusual ringtones.
-- A set of three "harmonically related tones" designed for parents with one child and made with complementary simultaneous playback in mind. Inspired from Prokoviev's «Peter and the Wolf».
-- Two different Morse code tones as well as a silent ringtone (!).
-- And one may also purchase a CD to teach birds to sing mobile phone ringtones. This must come from one of the most off-the-wall ringtone stories that circulated in May 2001, about a Danish man who claimed the sparrows in his garden were chirping the Nokia classic tone. Which of course led Finish Mobile Avenue to offer a variety of bird ringtones. You can listen to some samples here.
