    For the last month everytime I have driven my MINI I kept hearing the warning chime, you know the one that tells you temp has dropped below 37 or you are about out of gas. The problem was I could never find a corresponding light to go with the chime.

    Tonight I found it, you see a month ago I got a iPhone, yes you guessed it, was the email notification. Did you know it is the same chime they use on gen one MINIs. Has driven me nuts for the last four weeks, problem solved, changed alert tones....:eek:

    F1 Car sounds for the notification win!

    Only drawback, when at the track you can't tell if it's the phone.

    I got an app for making ring tones. Easy to use and you can make anything you want. I use "boots & Saddles" for my ring tone and when my wife calls it plays "to arms". :D

    My grandmother had one of those. You could drop the ear piece on your toe, causing you to chip a tooth on the mouth piece, while getting your finger stuck in the dial. You are a brave man Scott. :D
