Patent ID: 7970120

Claim:
A system comprising: a cell phone comprising a keypad, a display, a cellular radio, and an internal speaker; a non-volatile memory storing at least one stored call sound; a user interface comprising the display and the keypad wherein a presentation is displayed on the display, wherein the presentation offers at least one available call sound comprising the at least one stored call sound, and wherein a user uses the user interface to select a selected call sound; a call sound retrieval module that obtains at least one served call sound wherein a server serves the at least one served call sound and wherein the call sound retrieval module produces at least one of the at least one stored call sounds; an animal and bird simulating module that accesses the at least one stored call sound and plays the at least one stored call sound on at least one speaker wherein the internal speaker is one of the at least one speaker wherein the cell phone further comprises the call retrieval module and the animal and bird simulating module; a timing module that produces a timed actuation signal wherein the cell phone responds to the timed actuation signal by playing the selected call sound; a remote actuator wherein the remote actuator produces a remote actuation signal wherein the cell phone reacts to the actuation signal by playing the selected call sound; an external speaker that is one of the at least one speaker and wherein the animal and bird simulating module plays the at least one stored call sound on the external speaker; a cell phone control module that can disable the cellular radio such that power is conserved; a payment module, a payment processing module, and a fulfillment module wherein the user uses the payment module to tender a payment, and wherein the fulfillment module allows the user to access a served call sound if the user has paid for the access; recovery information corresponding to the at least one stored call sound; and wherein the selected call sound is one of the at least one served call sound, wherein the selected call sound is not one of the at least one stored call sound, and wherein the call sound retrieval module automatically obtains the selected call sound from the server.
