Only yesterday I observed that there is so much innovation that can be done at the End. Today I came across a site that is marketing a device called Ringboxx that generates custom ring tones for landlines. With this box, one can customize the ring tone as one can do in a mobile phone. One can specify ring tones based on the caller ID. The unit costs $40. It is all and good. But it doesn’t go all the way because one has to buy the ring tones from them and each tone costs $2 or $3. It is not clear that you can generate a tone from your music library. A better product would be to integrate this function as part of a cordless phone and allows importing an MP3 clip.
Oops. I have already vented on this product. Sorry!
