Nokia 6620

[isaac obie]

Jonathan,
Excellent points. Not only do I hear the music when the phone boots p, but I 
can feel it as well. It's just that this is my first real experience with a 
phone. I've seen them, touched them, but not really done anything with them. 
I wish it would pla some music when shutting down as well. More than a one 
second jingle. But the loop setting is a great idea. I never thought of 
that. that setting sometimes let me know people have left the monitor on on 
the computer. Do you think I might do better with the I-Mate sp5m phone? 
thanks.
Isaac
