My phone is on vibrate. Yours should be too. Seriously. Not one person has been annoyed by my phone in about 8 years. Why the hell can't you just put your damn phone on vibrate?! (I said no one has been annoyed by my phone. I am still, personally, very annoying, even without the phone) :-) Frankly, ringtones should just be scrapped entirely. My phone is on vibrate.

My SMS/MMS/Email is the "doink doink" from law and order. I'm content with those. I have a lot of other goofy ringtones but never use them. I didn't care for the standard blackberry storm ringtones.

Probably because it was a duck tone, which is always funny. But I do agree with you. Whenever I get a new phone I switch it straight to vibrate...and then figure out all the ringtones later. Though, I still keep it on vibrate most of the time. My ring is always a 'normal' phone ring though. Haha, at least Obama is a good sport about it.

No one REALLY wants to hear your ringtone. It's kinda like driving with your music unrealistically loud. Have you ever been driving and some one pulls up next to you with their music and bass blaring, have you ever ONCE been like... that guy's cool??? Or when some tool peels out and drives really fast, have you ever been watching and thinking, damn I wish I was him? btw... everyone who voted for Obama, where are you now? I thought he was going to be the savior? seriously!!! No one REALLY wants to hear your ringtone. It’s kinda like driving with your music unrealistically loud.
