It was old even when I read it - a back issue of my dad's.
And there was this article about some "new" technology which would allow a phone to ring differently depending on who was calling. Amazing, right?
But the researcher interviewed said that they would do simple three or four note rings - not music, because they'd found that this was "really annoying".
...
Boy, were they ever right.
So, I've got my new phone, right? And although I've done everything I can to make every possible call come in using a normal ringer, apparently the default ring for contacts added to my list is always going to be this annoying musical ring. Even though I've set my ring to just be "telephone" instead of "annoying music", contacts are automatically assigned a "special" ring, which defaults to the annoying music. I have to scroll down to the bottom to make it normal.
This is driving me batty. All I want is a phone that rings, or possibly vibrates. That's all. Instead, I get annoyances.
*sighs*
