GEEK ALERT -

I have the Magnum Chime set has the alert for emails I receive on my BlackBerry so, throughout the day, low in the background, I hear the chime go off.

It makes me smile.

At the very end of 1.11 "The curse of the King Kamehameha Club", there is a nice version of the Magnum chime....

This is great, I just put the chime on my phone as a e-mail notifier and I sent a link to my pals.

Thank's for sharing this.

I'm glad you guys are finding a use for it. It's on my phone, as well, and never fails to make me smile.

Yeah thanks for posting it. I actually have had it as the text message alert tone in my cell phone for the last couple months and I love it. I also use the magnum for my ringtone, though I alternate frequently.

Still have the theme song as my ring tone, but unable to use the chime as a message tone. Can't understand why Apple havent allowed people to change text alert tones. Or for that matter, email alert tones on my iPad - same thing. *sigh*

One more reason I don't use products beginning in a lower case "i"

Yay, after much hard work and trial and error finally worked out how to use the Magnum Chime for my text tone on iPhone. Sweeeeet :D

My BlackBerry is all Magnum'd up!

Updates and emails - Magnum Chime
Phone calls - Theme song startup
Text messages - Magnum's "Hi Guys!"

On my wife's phone? I made my ringtone Magnum's laugh.

I need help . . .

You got a "Hi Guys" chime?! Oh, man!

I've got the Magnum Chime for text message alerts and the Iconic theme for my main ring.

Also, (this drives my wife nuts) I have the Gunga Din story for my alarm every morning at 6:30 am. She's so tired of hearing Higgins say "Malaysia 1943..." HA! I wake up smiling every day!

I need to get the laugh and "Hi Guys" from somebody.

Oh, I also have Higgins saying "This is outrageous! Outrageous!" My kids love hearing that. And a couple versions of "Oh My God!"

I love modern technology.

It's even better when seeing clients, going over print proofs with a group, and my text goes off with my "hi guys!" and everyone looks around like "who was that?"

Thankfully my wife gets me and has a great sense of humor as well . . . so when she's at work, and I call her cell, and the Magnum laugh goes off, she's laughing while everyone one else is wondering WTF????

Conch, please post the "Hi Guys" and Magnum laugh chimes if you can. That would be awesome!


Thanks,
Bill
