Abstract:
A communication device comprising:a mechanism (203) to accept user input for selection of options such that an option to create a call signal audio file may be selected; processing circuitry (220) connected to receive user input from the mechanism (203), processing circuitry being operable to record audio input and to thereby create a call signal audio file (210) in response to the selection of the option to create a call signal audio file; memory circuitry (202) for storing the call signal audio file connected to the processing circuitry; circuitry (207, 208) connected to the processing circuitry for playing the call signal audio file when an incoming call is detected; transceiver circuitry (201) connected to the processing circuitry (220), the transceiver circuitry operable to receive an incoming telephone call, wherein the processor circuitry is operable to record a portion of an incoming telephone call and to thereby create a call signal audio file (210) in response to the selection of the option to create a call signal audio file.
