According to The Age, these are the finds of new research carried out by Tesco Mobile on 1,000 people:
i. If you have rude or animal sound tones, especially the popular Crazy frog, you are little more than a boy.
ii. If you have the latest chart hit, you could be unreliable.
iii. If you have an old-fashioned ringtone, you could be pretentious.
iv. If you have a polyphonic version of My generation and More than a feeling, you must be an ageing rocker!
v. If you have a recording of yourself, your partner or child, you can be more than a little self-obsessed.
vi. If you have a standard ringtone, you could lack daring or even an aversion to technology.
More findings of the research
1. Twenty-one per cent of those questioned thought having a standard ringtone was 'uncool'.
2. Twenty-five per cent said the first thing they did on acquiring a new phone was to personalise the ring tone.
3. Sixty-six per cent had got so annoyed with someone else's choice of mobile tone they had either switched off the phone or asked the owner to do so!
